No? How about cubing the cylinder?

Presumably, no one at ABC News saw the photos in question. They probably built their computer graphics based on verbal descriptions, perhaps a sketch. A few things may have been lost in the process.

Who knows? Maybe the tube structure is inside the box structure. Or perhaps the cylinder is the online avatar for the box structure in Second Life.

You’ve gotta stay in touch with your inner concrete cylinder, I always say.

It could be that the thick-walled cylindrical structure was begun first, and then the building was built around and on top of it. Historic analysis of imagery could determine a lot more about the facility than the single, recent shot we have today.
