It sure sounds a strickingly super skyscraper seemingly set to start soon......sorry, I couldn't resist a bit of alliteration
Great news again for London, this should help quash the multitude of people who moan about 'well most of thse probably won't go up'...how do you like them apples :baeh3:
2007 and 2008 look to be years of high construction, with Leadenhall, Heron, St George's Wharf, LBT, and Pan Peninsula Tower (started construction I beleive) all guaranteed to go up. Plus possibly Minerva tower and Beetham, with Bishopsgate tower looking very likely get approval later this year with a 2007/2008 start date, then you've also got quite a few more towers at CW looking to get approval like Riverside South, North Quay tower 1, North Quay tower 2, Heron Quays West....not to mention random skyscrapers thrown into the mix like Elephant and Castle (Multiplex), and Vauxhall..... AND that's not counting all the other proposals that have come recently (tower next to Swiss Re for example, and that not-so-nice one for Fenchurch street) and many more are likely to come in the near future!
Phew, Good God, it's exausting just thinking about it. Is there one area of London not experiencing regeneration, construction of a stadium or construction of a skyscraper??? What say we knock down St Paul's Cathedral to make way for a new batch of skyscrapers eh?
