Obsessed with a weird building near Baltimore, MD, USA

That is the Padonia Commerce Constructing, situated at 9603 Deereco Rd, Timonium, MD (north of Baltimore). Present tenants seem to incorporate a comedy membership, a submit workplace, and a taking pictures vary. I stay within the area and I'm obsessive about this constructing.

I'm not an architect, so perhaps there are many buildings like this, however I've by no means seen one. The roof seems to be held up by wires, like a large tent manufactured from … roof materials. Wouldn't they’ve horrible issues with water pooling up there? The constructing appears to be like prefer it's not in the very best form and I'm at all times unusually fearful that will probably be torn down.

I can't discover any details about when it was constructed and why it was constructed that approach. I'm not likely a stand-up fan, however perhaps I ought to go to a comedy present there so I can see it from the within.
