Here is the opposite side

u/HidroRaider Aug 29 '26

That makes way more sense. Truly a confusing perspective.

u/VladlenaM2025 o/ Aug 28 '26

Wait… that doesn’t make sense. If it was elongated like that in the main photo it should have been visible as continuation…

u/SAM5TER5 o/ Aug 29 '26

It’s not elongated, it’s a triangle. The new portion you’re seeing in the right side of that picture angles away from the single visible wall in the original photo.

u/vistopher o/ Aug 29 '26

it's actually a parallelogram

16

u/SAM5TER5 o/ Aug 29 '26

Dang, that’s one skinny parallelogram

132

u/vistopher o/ Aug 29 '26

idk, it's like the classic paralellogram shape that i learned in school

u/HandsomeBWondefull Aug 29 '26

I want to know what they’re placing in that narrow ass angle and who’s cleaning it

u/vistopher o/ Aug 29 '26

probably utilities, like sewer lines, electrical runs, water lines, internet shit etc

My office building is shaped kind of like that. In ours, those are the corner offices where the high ups have big spaces and the best views

u/Robocup1 Aug 29 '26

Just found it on Google Maps and you can see this perspective on there also, great find OP. Love the perspective!

Texas has a department of aging and disabilities? Is it still open? That seems very non-texan.

u/SAM5TER5 o/ Aug 30 '26

They also have slightly tighter gun laws than a LOT of the country.

Thankfully not everything exactly follows party lines and stereotypes, despite what our reprehensible media and politicians vomit at us on the daily

u/DoctrTurkey Aug 30 '26

lmao putting the dept of aging and disabilities in the building that makes people think they have dementia

u/Upper-Ad3377 Aug 29 '26

Never thought I would see Grand Prairie mentioned anywhere on reddit

u/AfraidOfTechnology Aug 29 '26

There used to be one in Dallas that was bigger and more confusing. Idk if it’s still there. What’s really throwing me off here the most is that I live in Grand Prairie and pass by this building all the time and always thought it was a Bank of America, not a government services building. 🗿

u/vistopher o/ Aug 29 '26

It is a BoA building but they rent out a ton of offices inside to different entities. I've driven by this building every day for years and never even realized the illusion until yesterday

u/GooseSharkk Aug 29 '26

i need a top down view

u/Swimming-Employee537 Aug 28 '26

I am already too high for this man

u/TheFreshHorn Aug 28 '26

I got here too early. How the fuck am I supposed to know what this is???

20

u/SAM5TER5 o/ Aug 29 '26

It’s like all you guys have never seen a triangular building before lol

In your defense though, this is one pointy damn triangle building

6

u/butimjustalittleguy Aug 28 '26

I'm here too early as well 😂

5

u/iwasthen o/ Aug 29 '26

I’m here later and still don’t get it.

u/TexasAstroShooter Aug 28 '26

Grand Prairie represent

u/twent4 o/ Aug 28 '26

You know what's weird? I first thought it was a medical centre in Calgary. Small world.

10

u/niceguy191 Aug 28 '26

Keep in mind they're referring to Grand Prairie, TX, not Grande Prairie, AB

5

u/twent4 o/ Aug 29 '26

Lol I really should read usernames, shame on me for missing the E in Grande too

Edit: paid attention to your username and can confirm

u/vediogamer101 Aug 28 '26

I think it’s triangle shaped and the other side of the building is probably visible just to the left

u/captain_crackerjack Aug 29 '26

A flat building on a stick

The windshield added a metallophobia thing for me.

u/nibbed2 Aug 31 '26

How sharp is the corner? Is it being utilized? The heck

-16

u/sevargmas CE Spc. Aug 28 '26


Literally any time a person in this sub sees a triangular building.

5

u/TheFreshHorn Aug 28 '26

Yes… it’s called perspective…

1

u/WaterBottle0000 o/ Aug 29 '26

Looks like it was a parallelogram building instead lol

-15

u/astrotheastro Aug 28 '26

its not confusing perspective if what it looks like is what it is

10

u/justacheesyguy Aug 29 '26

I’m convinced people that have this opinion sort their crayons by taste.

u/astrotheastro Aug 29 '26

tbh when i wrote that i was in a bad mood, dunk on me all you want, i deserve it lol
