abu dhabi on the moskva

the world's largest building with over 10,000,000 square feet----crystal island it's called----a little more dramatic than crystal city across the potomac from d.c., although crystal city was sort of the first of the big mess that has grown up in arlington and alexandria and forever changed many of our capital's best vistas----same in moscow: there will be a great view of the city, but the building itself will dominate the skyline, for better or for worse---st. basil's will seem kind of dinky and quaint by comparison----
