The old embassy building was demolished by September 2020 and will be replaced by a new building on the same site by 2022.
This building was included in the red list, published in our exhibition catalog SOS Brutalism: A Global Survey (September 2017). After a status review on September 23, 2020, it was reclassified in the online database from red (endangered) to black (demolished).
