Interesting, it looks like Katzner screwed up with цель and здание: should be цел-ь -> цел-и, здан-ие -> здан-ии.

Crap. I knew I was going too fast.

You're right, it should be цели and здании for those examples. It even says that in the dictionary. Next time I might just take a minute to proofread what I've written.

Thank you.
