While it still has a way to go before it can equal the aesthetic crime against humanity represented by Los Angeles's preeminent residential eyesore, music producer/reality TV nutjob Norwood Young's House of Davids, up-and-coming architectural abomination ALEXANDER, RULER OF THE WORLD is quickly making a name for itself in the exciting world of "Did you fucking see that place?" landmarks.

But we like ALEXANDER, RULER OF THE WORLD's chances of establishing its place atop the pantheon of tackiness: Martini Revolution, who introduced us to the apartment building's fuscia majesty (we're told it pops much more in person), reports that its owner is "not finished" with realizing his vision, leaving us to hope that its roof will one day be covered in at least a dozen 30-foot, hot-pink busts of its conquering namesake, a grace note that should help it virtually erase all memory of the amatuerish statuary at that David-littered dump.

[Note: It's located near the corner of Van Ness and Melrose, should you wish to make a pilgrimage.]
