'Big underpants' makes worst building list
The newly built headquarters of China Central Television (CCTV) has been listed as one of the "terrible buildings worth tearing down" in a survey by the London-based Financial Times of its journalists from around the world.
The controversial luxurious CCTV headquarters, nicknamed "big underpants" by locals, was designed by Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas.
"Walkie Talkie", a 37-story building in London completed this year, tops the list winning 20.9 percent of the popular vote.
