The Pyramid Building, as the American's call it,
is a former Iraqi Government building located in the International Zone. It was bombed heavily during the beginning of Operation
Iraqi Freedom.
|
|
As you can see, the Pyramid Building is called that because of its shape. I think the Finance Minister called this home,
or at least that is what I have been told. The U.S. Army moved into the compound and called it home for a while after they
invaded Baghdad.

The building may look good on the outside, but the entire insides are gutted, courtesy of the U.S. Air Force. Here, you
can see where one of our projectiles infiltrated the building.

The outside of the building shows battle wounds.

Another close-up of the outside of -- what once was -- a beautiful building.
