What is extremely fascinating, is the way your mind 'remembered' the
building. For instance, the focus on the marble slabs, was interpreted very
differently from reality, leading, in the end, to a clearly different
building: the "mind's building" vs. the "real building". This leads to very
interesting concepts about the creation of "worlds" I would say (not even
speaking about the reliability of witnesses!!).
I am not sure which building I prefer... The "mind's building" could lead to
very interesting new vistas...
