The palace that Uncle Joe built!

It looks like Uncle Joe gave Warsaw "the bird".

It looks like it was some kind of a Russian tradition - to built in occupied Warsaw a building, that will dominate the whole city.

At the end of XIX century Rusian tsar built a huuuuuge Orthodox church in Warsaw - to show who was the master.



In 1926, after Poland re-gained independence it was pulled down.

A pitty the same hasn't happened to the Stalin's gift.
