I saw a picture of this on my wife's Facebook page and thought it was BS. So I checked it out with a birds eye view of the island, via bing. WTF is wrong with this picture? Outside of everything that is good!

They should rebuild it in the shape of a crescent, with a small star as the central office.
Coming soon from Washington.

The bastards already did this with the flight 93 memorial, they have no ethics or values. They are from hell.

How is that a efficient design? My dad was a architect, and big into social engineering. I grew up with this crap. How is this efficient first? Architectural engineering is a long term statement. What moron approved the plans!?

No not imagination (Native American Pattern, prove it!), just historical facts. I know it’s not convenient, especially if you live in fantasy land, as most Americans do! I left the sci-fi world a long time ago, unlike allot of people that vote here. What are your facts?

If the DoD had built this in Switzerland, we could dub it the Swisstika. Hey, it's been a long week, and I'm not that funny on a good day. Thanks foundedonpurpose. Totally unrelated:

there are rules on how much "GREEN SPACE" common area you have to have for any given area of housing...
since you don't like it, lease tell me how YOU would design it
not to mention that symbol is Sanskrit from thousands of years before the NAZI's glommed onto it!

Thanks to the power of Google Earth and the internet the US Navy have decided to spend as much as $600,000 on major alterations to a perfectly good barracks. The reason for the spend is that, when viewed on Google Earth, the building complex resembles a swastika. It would have looked like that on the construction drawing plan layouts. The Architect designed it. The Navy approved it. I doubt the layout was all that hard to see. Before the NAZI's, it was a perfectly good symbol used in Asia. The NAZI's forever put an indelible stamp of horror on this symbol.
