How Ace Are Buildings is an album released in 1997 by the British alternative rock band A.

The album was re-released in 1998, in the form of cassette and LTD Edition 12". Whereas the cassette featured the same tracks, the 12" album also included a bonus vinyl, featuring 'A' remixes and live tracks.

This vinyl was strictly LTD to just 500 copies, and changes hands for around £30-50. The cassette album was a dying format at the time of release and is now considered to be the rarest of all A releases.
