Over on WNYC, the Leonard Lopate show has just kicked off a contest to find the worst buildings in New York City. From the horse’s mouth:

Is there a building in New York that you thinks is really ugly, or has a fatal design flaw? Think that house or parking garage in your neighborhood is an eyesore? Then take a photo, and send it to us!

The producers have set up a group on Flickr to take submissions; the architectural historian and Times scribe Christopher Gray will appear on the show on September 25 to discuss the submissions and to give his own picks. Sounds like fun to us! We just kicked off the submissions with the bane of our existence—220 Greene Avenue (aka the Greene Avenue Atrocity), a project we’ve chronicled ad nauseum during its miserable less-than-two-year existence.
