We will give elementary constructions of several classes of buildings as universal covers of finite complexes. Then (as a geometric application) we will show a connection of our results with Gromov's surface subgroup question and (as an arithmetic application) we will give explicit examples of quaternionic lattices.</p><p style="text-align: center;">	<a data-url="https://mathpicture.fas.harvard.edu/seminar" href="internal:/seminar" title="">Mathematical Physics Seminar</a></p><p style="text-align: center;">	<drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="ab32b3c2-9ed0-46f0-bfef-7444df5cbfc0" alt="Buildings, Surfaces, and Quaternions" data-view-mode="hwp_large"></drupal-media></p>
