Wow! Does anyone know if this is an actual building somewhere? (via Supercentral and Graydon Sheppard)
UPDATE: I guess I was the only one who didn’t realize this was a Lego recreation of M.C. Escher’s “Waterfall” drawing. Thanks to all the helpful commenters! Compare and contrast:

    Actually, it’s a recreation of a famous M.C. Escher drawing. It’s supposed to be an impossible structure.

  3. Looks to me like it’s a take-off of an M.C. Escher piece.
