DESCRIPTION:We will give an elementary introduction to the theory of build
 ingsfrom a geometric point of view. Namely\, we present buildings as unive
 rsal coversof finite polyhedral complexes. It turns out that the combinato
 rial structure of these complexesgives rise to a large class of higher ran
 k Cuntz-Krieger algebras\, which K-theory can be explicitly computed.
