Guess the Mauve Bits Pt. 7: Earth-Toned Escher

guess7.jpg

Nothing says "slow news week" quite like our ongoing un-contest of mystery easy to identify photos of Reston taken by roving Predator drones the Google machine. We're pretty sure we had a poster of this building up in our dorm room in college, but we wouldn't have guessed in a million years we'd be living near it someday!

As always, make your guess in the comments for your crack at not winning that late-model Buick we keep prattling on about. For those keeping score at home, the over/under on this one should be about 11 minutes.

Update: We have a winner, and it took just seven minutes -- which is a lot less time than it would take to figure out how to get to the top of this twisted triangle of a parking garage.

    There need to be more spray-painted cuss words or crude penis drawings on Reston's rooftops. Come on, bored teenagers... do your job!

    Seven minutes for a correct answer -- that's a record. We've never been in this parking garage, but based on how it looks from the air, we're not sure it's possible that cars can actually get to the top level.

    Hey, I identified it as soon as I saw it (in October 2013). I can almost see my fifth-floor office window which overlooks the scenic dumpster.
