I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about.

As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.

A long, monolithic concrete wall gives off an almost bunker-like vibe. When you get to the river, however, you're on a different planet, where the funkiness subverts a tight, organizing geometry to create one of the more engaging structures in the city.

As Weese crossed the Danube River on a ferry, he noticed an unusual riverside development where the Communist government apparently had allowed local architects to do whatever they wanted. More than 30 years later, Weese has created his own...
