National Ice Cream Cone Day Goes High-Rise
National Ice Cream Cone Day, and the city skyline finally admits what it really is: fast food with better lighting. Forget glass towers and concrete landmarks — here’s a 60-story waffle cone topped with vanilla soft-serve. It doesn’t just blend into the grid, it improves it. I think more skylines should look like this.
Soft-serve has always been fast food architecture anyway. Tom Carvel sold it from a broken truck in the 1930s, Dairy Queen franchised it in the 1940s, and the cone has been holding up suburbia ever since. Why not a downtown?
