To be fair, CW is cubes but they are well made, high spec cubes usually. I'd rather this, so long as quality is maintained, than some halfed ar*ed curvy nonsense ala the lovingly value engineered Pinnacle.

The form isn't really the issue here, it's the glazing and the complete lack of elevational vigour which is.

But we arent sure which one will be built here.

That is the old design for Heron Quays West. Replaced with a new design years ago.

aphw · September 17th, 2011, 01:49 PM

Is that a Foster design?

Newcastle Guy · September 17th, 2011, 02:49 PM

Rogers I think.

http://canarywharf.co.uk/aboutus/The-Estate/Estate-Map/ is a good start. they used to colour code it (built, approved, planned) but this gives an idea of the final look

The model shows the short design. Interesting that it shows HQ west and North Quay, but not 1 Park Place.

***ill tonkso*** · September 22nd, 2011, 01:31 AM

I thought Park Place was refused?

Yes, but if you click on it the image that appears is the taller design. So who knows?

Anyone know if construction is, as sardinianboy suggests, likely to start any time soon?
