The below link was sent to me via email by a friend. Since the page seems to be dated as having been created yesterday, and I don't see a thread on it, I don't think it's new.

Anyways, for the outside chance that a zombie infestation may occur, perhaps this is what we should be looking for in property. I thought it was a little funny.

The third photo down the list is Dar Al Hajar in Yemen.
(The square fort on top of a column of rock)
I wonder who can identify the other ones?

I think the 5th one down is photoshopped, just my opinion though.
The third from the bottom I think is a residence in CA.
the UFO one & the one directly above it I have seen a show on their architects...I think one is in AZ.

The treehouse is a restaurant outside Onoyama Park in Japan.
The tree is concrete and the elevator is inside it.

The second lighthouse (the one below the red & white striped one) is the Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, on the Chesepeake Bay. It's a little south of Annapolis. See: http://www.thomaspointlighthouse.org/

The striped lighthouse is photoshopped. It seems to be a picture of the Westerhever Lighthouse in Schleswig-Holstein, which was cropped and inserted into the middle of water, because it is not surrounded by water. Although, it might be possible for it to be surrounded by water under the right conditions, I doubt it would appear as depicted. See: http://marinas.com/view/lighthouse/1132_Westerhever_Lighthouse_Schleswig-Holstein
