It looks like any other warehouse structure, with some big sliding doors, and some little sliding doors next to it. You know, for the people to walk in an out of. It wasn't until I noticed that there were semi trucks pulling in and out of the little doors that I started to grok just how big that fucking building was.
Also, it's really weird to drive for perceptible time at freeway speeds. Like, it starts and then there's a freeway exit ramp and you pass some people and it's still there and then there's another exit ramp and it's still there and you think "wait, I'm going like 80..what the fuck?"
