LifeHacker discovered 10 months ago- Navy to mask Coronado's swastika-shaped barracks The buildings, constructed in the 1960s, are on the Coronado amphibious base and serve as a barracks for Seabees. From the ground, or even adjoining buildings, the configuration cannot be seen. Nor are there any civilian or military landing patterns that provide such a view. But Google Earth shows the shape clearly. Ground level isn't a problem but aerial views of the Coronado site spark outrage. CORONADO, Calif., -- The U.S. Navy has decided to spend as much as $600,000 for landscaping and architectural modifications to obscure the fact that one its building complexes looks like a swastika from the air. The four L-shaped buildings, constructed in the late 1960s, are part of the amphibious base at Coronado and serve as barracks for Seabees. From the ground and from inside nearby buildings, the controversial shape cannot be seen. Nor are there any civilian or military landing patterns that provide such a view to airline passengers.

- I'm glad to see my tax dollars are at work protecting the world from innocent buildings. Political correctness is so far out of control, it's not even funny anymore. RUN! THE EVIL BUILDING IS ON A PUSSY OFFENDING RAMPAGE!!!
