Can any­one guess where this is?

Could be a social com­ment on the nature of emoticon-based expres­sion, per­haps? Impris­on­ing, unmov­ing, cold… how odd! Who would think such things? :p

There is a mas­sive build­ing being demol­ished in the city at the minute. The fact they’ve left one incred­i­bly thin wall (left of frame) stand­ing is com­pletely absurd, but I’m sure there’s some sophis­ti­cated engi­neer­ing deci­sion behind it. It barely looks strong enough to with­stand a decent kick were one to some­how reach high enough, being (appar­ently) a layer of bricks thick with slightly crum­bling mor­tar and a flimsy wooden inter­nal sup­port sys­tem that’s prob­a­bly well and tru­ely rot­ten by now.
