Russian term or phrase: под странным углом
From a work on architectural monuments in Constantinople. Crooked intersection? I do not know what the тоже refers to as nothing preceding the sentence seems to fit.

Еще один кусок стены (7), высится уже к югу от прибрежного шоссе, тоже под странным углом, на Kızıkhan sok., около Rüstempaşa Camii.
