  • Comment: The facade seems ever so slightly tilted clockwise to me; not sure whether it's just an illusion of the architecture. The front columns are perpendicular all right, but the visible inner one does appear to be leaning outward. So the building isn't perfectly straight, but is it that the inside column is leaning outwards, or that the facade actually leans inwards? --Paul_012 (talk) 20:23, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
