Of course it wont take long to build. Just look at how thin the tower is. It will take about 4 second to walk at an average pace to reach on end of the building to another.

Wow, that's a beautiful building! I hope it gets built. It'll do well for the E&C area too.

Er, does this remind anyone of a Stargate Atlantis "gate jumper" ?

Do you mean a Puddle Jumper? I suppose if you tipped it on it's side the tower would look like one.

Scaled against other London buildings.

Jolly Good Jonny.

Fragmentor · December 13th, 2005, 07:46 AM

Nice and tall indeed

Nice diagram Jonny. I don't suppose anyone who knows how fancies taking a crack at Beetham and Pan Peninsular since they are the two most obvious holes on London's skyscraperpage diagram.

Got a Peninsular drawing half done. Design was changed mid way through me drawing it which messed up that drawing.

Drawing Beetham is going to be

Have you seen the shape that is? and how complicated the cladding is. It's going to be impossible to draw at an angle.
Might just do a cop out and draw it from the front so I don't have to do too much work.
I've been putting it off hoping it gets cancelled so I don't have to draw it......

I like the diagrams for mainly the purpose of comparning heights, we have spanky-doodle renderings to show us what it looks like

I agree.

i suppose this symbolises the future of london's high-rise skyline: largely decentralised and anarchic. it might not look tidy, but it will look interesting and reflect the vastness of the capital and the broadness of its boroughs.

Just like London always has been.

Did anyone go to the exhibition then?
