Bizarre Buildings

September 15th, 2008

The Basket Building (United States)
Built by Dave Longaberger, founder of The Longaberger Company, this radical office building was once considered a joke when he started on it. When he announced his plans to make his office a gigantic basket, most thought that it was another one of his jokes, since he was known to be notorious practical joker.

The Basket Building opened its doors for the 1st time on 17 December, 1997.
