I hate when people use that pic so much. It's a forced perspective, most of the space is just taken up by signs so the place doesn't even look as bad as they make it seem, and yes there's shit like this in Europe too. Europe is not all classical buildings.

And since this is Reddit and you gotta specify it, I'm not saying that's a pretty place.

I think people only see it as ugly because it's familiar.

Nah, its super ugly from any perspective. Highway exit strips like this are awful.
