The tallest wooden house in the world
July 21st
Have you heard about this crazy Russian skyscraper/house yet? Built by hand by ex-gangster Nikolai Sutyagin in the city of Arkhangelsk, it currently stands—incomplete—at 144 feet, and both townspeople and local authorities are threatening to make him take it down. (There was a story about the controversy in the Telegraph last fall, and you can watch a video about it here.)
I haven’t heard any further updates recently, but for the sake of creativity, coolness, and plain old peculiarity, I hope the house stays up…
