Oakland Police Station 2


I couldn't find an actual photo of the Police Station after renovation, but here's an architectural rendering. It's hard to tell from this drawing, but the new facade is ominous and has an Orwellian flavor. It definitely jives with my visions of Oakland as a dystopia. The dystopian Oakland I imagine would be one where the city has suffered from an earthquake and has been rebuilt with a harder, more fortress-like aesthetic.
