Both buildings look skewed, although only one of them really is. Barrel distortion plays its role. The old highrise, which definitely stands straight, is the Ministry of Agriculture. Right beside is Centra Nams - discussed in media as one of the architecture failures in Riga.

Glass&concrete fits each other

Most interesting...and why is the one called an "architectural failure"?
Indeed, ugly concrete buildings are total architectural failures. I am watching a show called "City tour" which is about architecture in my city, and all ugly buildings featured are concrete buildings (including my own neighbor, the Military school).
Just letting you know - I totally disagree with Karlis - that building is a new architectural pearl of Riga.
I hope the building on the left doesn't fall over! Nice photo! Kind regards from the "Birthday boy" at EAGAN daily photo

Interesting, how you manage to disagree with me, if I have not shared my opinion about this building yet? :)
I have red positive comments in local papers about this building.

I disagree with your leaning towards negative. It would be more appropriate to say that opinions about Tejas Kanaa (Tea Pot) are conflicting:)

Never mind - not an issue.
