   I’ve come across this building before and can never find good pictures of what the space feels like on the inside.

   Fun fact. The building was sinking due to the architect not accounting for the weight of the books. I think

    I’m sorry if I’m just being dumb, but how is this named in honor of Dr. Seuss? Nothing about the name has any connection to him, right?
