The developers of this tower have come up with their solution to the "death ray" problem. Because of the concave shape of the towers glass wall sunlight has been reflecting off it and melting cars and store fronts, people got sunburnt and you could fry eggs underneath it. To stop law suits against them they covered up the part of the cladding that was causing the problem, but it was a shame as the cladding is great quality and one of the best features of the tower. Now they have come up with a better and permanent solution, the cladding will be infused with aluminium fins across the southern side of the building. The brise soleil is designed to diffuse sunlight and stop it reflecting from the building. The current temporary cover on the glass wall will now be removed so the great cladding will be on display again.
