I wish to write the following block matrix in LaTex.

I have been trying a bunch of stuff, but none of it seems to work. In particular, I tried the following:
beginbmatrix
0 & -1& & & & & 0 & & & &\
1 & 0 & & & & & & & & &\
& & cdot & & & & & & & &\
& & & cdot & & & & & & &\
& & & & cdot & & & & & &\
& & & & & 0 & 1 & & & &\
& & & & &-1 & 0 & & & &\
& & & & & & & cdot & & &\
& & & & & & & & cdot & & \
& & & & & & & & & cdot & \
0 & & & & & & & & & & 0\
endbmatrix
But this is pretty ugly and so any suggestions will be much appreciated.
