From the article by Kate Scheider (via Drudge):
"A lavish new yacht recreating the billionaire's playground of Monaco is set to become the world's most expensive.
"The staggering 155-metre Streets of Monaco yacht is expected to cost over $1.1 billion to build and is modelled on a section of Monte Carlo.
"Currently in the design stage, the super-ship will feature smaller versions of the state’s famous landmarks such as the Monte Carlo Casino and racetrack, as well as swimming pools, tennis courts, a cinema, a go kart track and a Hotel de Paris.
"Instead of traditional decks the one-of-a-kind ship will have buildings, and instead of a swimming platform it will have a beach."
As you can see by the picture, this thing is incredibly ugly. If the Disney "imagineers" designed an aircraft carrier, the results would be similar.
I guess this just proves that bad taste and poor aesthetics have an unlimited price range. Although a fair amount of contemporary art has already proven that...
