If they keep going like this it'll reach full height in the first months of 2012.

This is one helluva ugly and stressful tower - destroys the character of the place through monstrosity of design. Evil Beast In Concrete!

Pinnacle is going slow, but Leadenhall is going up as fast as it can, no delays with that one.

Nice to see some proper fast height action going on in the city, even if it does have to be the ugly duckling of the cluster....

I have a mixed opinion on this tower. From most of the renderings it looks like a complete monstrosity, but I think it'll turn out much better than we expect. Happy to see progress!

That render's way out of date, it's showing the taller version of this building which was over 200m tall.
Good render of the other buildings...just not this one.
