    'Tulip' tower planned for London's skyline


    London's had the Gherkin, the Cheese Grater and the Walkie Talkie and now, if the plans are approved, a new tower called the Tulip will join the skyline.

    At 1,000ft (305m) high, it will be the City of London's tallest skyscraper and about 3ft shorter than the Shard, the UK's highest building.

      The shape of the tower is very "Brexit" I think.

      I'm alright Jack

          You might want to look into the guy that is funding the project. Got a bit of a colourful background.

            and also the Scalpel-I always thought what the Gherkin needed was two semi domes constructed either side just to finish off the effect

              If you're going to all that trouble, why wouldn't you bother making it four feet taller?
