Everyones got their own opinion, so it’s hard to say. Now, let’s take a look at some of the world’s worst buildings. The Torre Velasca The Tone Velasca in Milan is in the centre of Milan (Italy).

The Longaberger Basket Company The Longaberger Basket Company building is in Newark, Ohio (USA). The office block was opened in 1997 and looks like a very large basket.
