ING's main building in Second Life
Given the confusion that might exist on the origin of ING’s main building in Second Life, please find some pictures below.
The building does exist in real life and it is called Amsterdamse Poort (ING-inside nickname: Zandkasteel/Sand Castle or Apenrots/Ape Rock).
As it appears, the Second Life version is not really finished, not having the correct coloring and bricks on the outside. It is also considerably smaller then in real life.
The size could be related to the scarcity of SL-land, but I do hope that the coloring is really recreated.
