It was not a pretty building. A giant concrete block, essentially, that cut right through the middle of Nuuk. It was not a well-designed building. 88% of the population of Greenland is Inuit. Doorways were too narrow for their heavy winter clothing; blood from fish preparation clogged up bathtub drains. Because of these and other problems, Blok P was demolished in 2012.
