Tower As Tall As The Shard Approved For Square Mile
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on the BBC.
This is the sub-heading.
A skyscraper the same height as The Shard has been approved by the City of London Corporation.
These three paragraphs add more detail.
One Undershaft, will be the tallest in the City of London, containing 74 storeys.
It will also feature a public garden on the 11th floor and a London Museum education centre.
The plans were approved by the City of London Corporation on Friday but some consultees remain opposed to the plans, including Historic England and Tower Hamlets Council.
I have read the Wikipedia entry for the Shard and feel this building could have a few problems before it is finished.
The queue opposing the building appears to be forming starting with Historic England and Tower Hamlets Council.
I also wonder, if the City of London keeps on putting up mega-scrapers like this, whether there’ll be enough men, women, machines, money and materials to build them.
And workers to fill them.
