This IMO is one of the most unusual towers to be built in London. I looks like it's a miles outside of the City proper from many distant view but in reallity it's only on the edge. Another thing is that it looks very wide from some angles and more slender and elegant from others. I can't wait for it's completion because to be honest it looks like the best of the many planned skyscrapers for London.

I really don't think the London projects get enough love on SSP. This one's nice, but there are others that are just as exciting that get no coverage here. Those sunset shots are amazing.

Absolutely gorgeous weather today. ... I've just been for a walk to the top of Forest Hill. Lucky I had my camera -

On the right of that last photo, you can see the catastrophic damage done to St Paul's by the recent Unilver House extension. Far more damaging than Broadgate Tower or any other skyscraper, in my opinion... I can't believe they approved it.
