An old hotel that I remember seeing when I was a child. To me, it was a skyscraper. This building survived the 1964 tsunami that destroyed much of the town and killed 11 people, including several small children. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pitAGlz5x0
The 2011 earthquake in Japan caused another one. The harbor was destroyed.

For several years thereafter, many objects from Japan, some quite sad, have washed up on the coast of Alaska, Canada and mainland USA.

You're an expert! I live alone, so I've forgotten how to whine and sulk. What's the use without the audience? ;-o

A De Chirico kind of feeling, for me. “Metaphysical unease”.

I see that. It needs a lone man standing on the corner.
