I had a go at Heron. I think one sloping lego piece will do for this.

I had a go with Lego Technic-It's working very well.
I had a go with Heron, Shard, Place, Saint George's Wharf Tower, Fenchurch and the Pinnacle-I love Lego |

Had a go at making this building in sketchup, it was hard to make than I originally thought.
I left the elevator shafts out because I think I made them too big and the floors were left out because the program starting to slow down due to the amount of work put into it. I rushed the arrow bracing (whatever it's called so apologies if it's not up to your standards).  It looks bad because the diagonal steel don't look like the connect to each other and the columns themselves look really bulky and should be thinner. You would be able to see on my album the progress I made on this. Dunno why I posted it, I had nothing else to do and I felt like doing this.

Here's one of the right-hand side of the new hoarding to keep you going. They were unloading and installing plenty of large concrete slabs forming the floor of the new levels in white above the 5th floor this afternoon.

The entrance lobby looks great. I've been taking the bus for the last couple of days and seeing the steel has been fantastic.
