Edinburgh's Disgrace, Calton Hill, Edinburgh
The monument is notable for appearing to be only partially complete. A local myth tells that the monument was intended to be a full replica of the Parthenon, but money ran out midway through construction and only one side of the structure was completed. The city of Glasgow apparently offered to cover the costs but Edinburgh was too proud to accept the other city's charity. As a result, the monument is often given the nickname Edinburgh's Disgrace or Edinburgh's Folly. However, some plans for the Monument only depict 12 columns, suggesting it was never meant to be a full replica of the Parthenon
