Paisley Park Pyramids

Anyone know the significance of the 6 pyramids? Was there a reason there were 6? Was there a reason they were grouped the way they were? Was there a reason the capstone was over the main entrance pyramid? Why did he want to get rid of them in 2002? Lots of questions I have in my head. Thank you and purple love!

I've been curious about them too. I assumed they were skylights.

Since the early '90s he was pretty obsessed with pyramids and other matters related to Egypt wasn't he? Anyone know if there were there in the '80s? I never knew he wanted them taken down, that would've been a bad decision...they truly add to the Paisley Park/Prince/Eccentric vibe haha.

Purple Music is my drug and I'm jonesin!!!!!

He also wanted a camel to be delivered in the middle of the night. I'm not sure there was always a plan.

Originally he wanted mosque-like domes on PP but cost required things be scaled back. I think this is talked about in the BBC Documentary "Prince's Millions".

I was unaware he wanted to get rid of them? Where does that info come from? Financially he could have acomplished this so if he'd really wanted to get rid, there is no reason for them still to be there.
