One of London's newer landmarks, the nicknamed walkie scorchie building. So named after it melted parts of a city boy's posh car. Read this post for the story.
As it is the first of the month the city daily photo community choose a theme. This month it is landmark. To see other city landmarks visit here.
You've photographed this so well. You can really see how it bends.
ReplyDeleteI remember that! Good choice!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, I remember that! Good perspective shot.
ReplyDeleteThe architects and engineers who designed and signed off on this should have a black mark on their records the rest of their careers for that fiasco.
A good choice! It is a building that won't be forgotten soon.
ReplyDeletei love your perspective, wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but the story of this building frying a rich boy's fancy car makes me laugh.
ReplyDeleteA-ha, a curved building.... Thought only the Gherkin could claim that... :)
