Throw in the Mandarin Oriental and the LSE at build out, and that's a sick ass build up in the middle of the skyline. NYC and HK, eat your heart out.
However, if this project really does get built, and built where it's proposed, then it had well better NOT look like it does. Nothing would suck more than 1300ft of bare, industrial looking concrete, with a couple pods of cutesy glass thrown on at either end, and 3 massive, blinking antennas on top. It would look like a fricking concrete bridge, cantilevered out of the ground.
It would be much, much more attractive to at least hang some occupabale space in regular intervals all the way up the structure, kinda sorta like a cross between the defunct 7SD and Calatrava's proposal for 80 South St in NYC.
