London's Growing Up: A Decade of Building Tall 

London looks so gorgeous, modern and elegant ❤ London is where old meets new 😊

London has an amazing skyline. Looking forward to seeing more skyscrapers built over the next few years.

I love skyscrapers i think London looks amazing, it's a pity all the investment is in the south.I would love cities in the north to look this good.

The future of skyscrapers are mixed use, mixed material buildings for mixed incomes... Everyone who wants to live in one should be able to both from a financial and family size aspect... Tall timber/CLT with concrete cores should be seriously looked into as they are technically viable up to at least 40 stories now!

wow I moved from London in 2008 when the Gherkin was a big deal. I dont recognise it any more!

The issue is the lack of smart affordable apartments for working people. Living in a high rise in central Tokyo is perfectly doable on £25k a year. The result is a bustling city full of normal people living their lives. In London the high rises seem exclusively for stock brokers and oligarchs - and this is reflected in how dead it often feels at the bases of such buildings at night.

Making new towers is irresponsible, you should use that money to revamp the old main streets and old houses from zone 1 to zone 6. The main streets are too old, we have to demolish then and make more modern centers, without red bricks. I prefer the grey and yellow ones.haha. It makes me think of the line project in saudi arabia ehen they could use that money for more responsible projects. We are so impressed by your towers congratulations. Now please can you take care of the accomodations? Many thanks

London looks like any medium to large size Chinese city now. Nothing else.

Those telephone-like buildings are simply disgusting. Why do they exist and why londoners still rising them up?

Are you the London girl as well

Why are first world countries not doing what builders are doing in Mexico? Tall mix-use towers with residential, commercial, office floors and some even have hotels

Don’t you want to redo the old main streets and redo the bad red houses spread out on kilometres instead from zone 2 to zone 12? Instead of trying to impress Europeans through image with aireal footage of towers? Because when we come in real, there is some disappointment, when we walk downtown. We can’t even live in these towers as it is 90% of the time for business purposes .The gap image_reality is too big… for example the shard -zone 1- is beautiful but its neighbourhood is depraved more than any neighbourhood/block/street in Germany or Spain… it is impressive in the air, but walking in these streets are the reasons why I left London after 4 years. The lie is too big.

Poor London!! The historical, traditional town is dead forever... Britain, you have sold your soul !!!

Modern London is ugly!!! 🤮🤮🤮

That one canada square tower in canary wharf was supposed to be over 260meters taller and thinner, but its all thanks to city airport that stop them from building it taller, but why couldn't they just close the city airport down or just move them west of London or far west, so they don't have to worry about the airport radar's, just wish we have 350meters to 400 meters skyscraper at canary wharf like they did at New York where they have world trade centre down lower Manhatten and Empire state building in mid Manhatten, or would you rather have 700ft tower and another 700ft tower next to it all over London gets you leaving like Huh? Plus it dont look right And for that one undershaft, just wanna say instead of having one Big building, why not have 2 skinny or thin skyscrapers say at hopefully 350meters or lower to 330meters with a sky glass deck like they did at London tower bridge and that would get everyone Buzzing and i would be Buzzing too or otherwise its gonna look Boring tho just saying?

Skyscrapers are disgusting, London looks disgusting.

Fun fact telling people from London they smell like fish is considered a compliment

no build taller, we dont live in a village
