Too bad I cant find a reference to the article that described this building as "a giant toaster with cancer". What a monstrosity.

You're an idiot. Whether you like the building or not, it's a unique part of the city. God forbid none of that new fangled architecture would ever set itself apart from more conventional landmarks.--outinthered 07:16, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

If you like it so much you can have it!! Please take it!! NOW!

Ok captain anonymous, lets be realistic: Huge building-1, Me-0. We are talking about a collective metropolis of 3 million + people! Get used to strange architecture in the twin cities because i'm sure there is more to come. If you want bland architecture, move to Utah.----outinthered 07:12, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Art museums are supposed to be different. Remember, the French hated the Eiffel Tower when it was built and now embrace it whole-heartedly. The Weisman was an eyesore to people in the mid-90s and now most citizens are used to the metallic, Gehry-created building. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.101.85.35 (talk) 16:40, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

This page needs a major update. With the projected opening, you'd think it'd be worked on internally. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.118.110.55 (talk) 03:37, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

They are apparently having a consulting firm in to discuss internal management and communications issues called Mobius. Hopefully they'll fire the director and get someone new. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.118.110.55 (talk) 03:32, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Can anyone confirm this? Their director is a dinosaur, but the last I heard she's doing an ok job. Has it gotten that bad? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.157.74.160 (talk) 03:07, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

The expansion should alleviate all problems. With such a spotlight, the Weisman should be alright. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.84.21.37 (talk) 02:38, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
