Cable TV Tower, Hong Kong. What appears to be a TV screen appears blank.

That was before the cellphone was invented, at least for personal use and ones with big screens.

I think that is an attractive building (same architect as the WTC too!). I also think that much of what was built in the 60s and 70s was horrible. Here's a worse one (this one's in New York)

bleh (and bleh to the buildings around it too!)
