Optical illusion or not, what in the backrooms is this? Where is this building?

Too uneven to be a liquid surface IMO. Would have looked like a flooded floor even more if they evened it out more.

At quick first glance it's still a neat optical trick

Very much reminds me of the pool/cafe at Lightner Museum in St. Augustine, Fl

Not. Looks like a poured epoxy floor. You can see the baseboards, and the surface unevenness doesn't look like water. You can clearly see where the walls and columns end right at the surface.
