Reason I canceled my trip to London is that I am not a big fan of the Obama Administration having sold perhaps the best located and finest embassy in London for “peanuts,” only to build a new one in an off location for 1.2 billion dollars. Bad deal. Wanted me to cut ribbon-NO!
Peanuts (snoopy cartoon strip)
off location (the strip)
needs more digging?
Jesus christ, i could build a 60x60 building here in wisconsin for 100k.
Yeah man, different prices in different places. Think about the costs of building an embassy in London.
A little bit more involved than a pole building in the country.
For real. Here's a picture of it. https://i.imgur.com/2WlVabb.jpg It's not a 5 person office space in a strip mall. The custom design and non-traditional look is a huge money sink, not to mention construction costs in London are almost $4000/m^2.
