Wow you guys are breaking my heart! The "works" one is Mies Van Der Rohe. Notice how it actually "works" as in "functions" as a building.

OK you have to admit this really nifty. It's a watertower!!

Hey, didn't expect to see South Africa on here. Is this the tower close to Grand Central Airport in Midrand?

Another great (to me at least) looking brutalist building in Johannesburg is UJ (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d3/Universi...)
