What is Unfinished building?
[[File:Szkieletor2.jpg|thumb|An unfinished building, the ''Szkieltor'' in [[Kraków]]. Begun to be built in 1975, work on it stopped in 1979. Building started again in 2016 and was finished in 2020 and is now known as [[:en:Unity Tower|Unity Tower]].]][[Image:Sagrada Familia 02.jpg|thumb|200px|The [[Sagrada Familia]] in [[Barcelona]], began to be built in 1882 and is still not finished.]] An '''unfinished building''' is a [[building]] that was being built, but was either [[wikt:abandoned|abandoned]] or is on hold. There are many different reasons why buildings have not been completed. One of the biggest reasons for unfinished buildings, is when the [[money]] runs out. The National Monument in Scotland was planned to be a War Memorial for soldiers killed in the [[Napoleonic Wars]]. Building started in 1826, but the [[money]] ran out in 1829. The [[Sagrada Família]], a church in [[Barcelona]], [[Spain]], was started in 1882 and is still not finished.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.aviewoncities.com/barcelona/sagradafamilia.htm |title=Sagrada Familia, Barcelona |work=aviewoncities.com |accessdate=28 August 2010 |archive-date=29 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190529193145/http://www.aviewoncities.com/barcelona/sagradafamilia.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> It is not finished because the [[architect]], [[Antoni Gaudí]], who died in 1926 after he was hit by a [[tram]], did not leave many plans for the building. What was left was destroyed during the [[Spanish Civil War]]. The war also meant that there was not enough money to complete the project. == Some examples == * [[Siena Cathedral|Duomo di Siena]], [[Sienna]], [[Italy]] * [[Goodwood House]], [[West Sussex]], [[England]] * [[Herrenchiemsee]], [[Bavaria]], [[Germany]] * [[Szkieletor]], [[Kraków]], [[Poland]] * [[Woodchester Mansion]], [[Stroud, Gloucestershire|Stroud]], [[Gloucester]], [[England]] * [[New Zealand Parliament Buildings|Parliament House]], [[Wellington]], [[New Zealand]] * [[Bishop Castle]], [[Colorado]], [[United States|USA
