Out of all the people in my life, I would have never guessed that my mother would send me an email that has an awesome piece of architecture in it, no offense to my mother. I had no idea this even existed, and one day I received an email from her that said “I thought you would find this interesting.” Indeed I did! This is truly amazing. It is the Sky Park of the Marina Bay Sands Resort in Singapore. The resort is home to the world’s most expensive casinos, bars and restaurants along with the Museum of Modern Art and the world’s largest swimming pool. The Sky Park is the “crowing” jewel of Singapore. It is the largest and highest elevated park in the world. It sits atop the three towers of the resort as if on pillars and is the largest cantilevered public space in the world. You may wonder what the total cost of the resort may be? $5.5 BILLION! This makes it the most expensive building on the planet. Needless to say, the structure has a lot of “world” 1st place statuses. Without further ado, I am going to let the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!
