The building has gone though a tumultuous fight to get to this near-completed stage. After rigorous zoning battles, scaling down its initial lofty goals in height, and tenant issues, the building is in the right shape now to be one of the best new additions to the city’s architecture. The mixed-use building will serve as luxury residences for Londoners, though the Dubai-based Jumeirah hotel recently signed a lease to be one of the anchoring tenants of the tower.

The building has also undergone a good deal of criticism on social media, after its first advertising video blew up in owner St. George’s face for being sexist and nearly pornographic in style. While the marketing team has since rehashed the messaging behind the building it seems, the structure and amenities offered in the space are nothing to be ridiculed.

The building features a 20-meter pool, ice fountain, snow cabin, sauna, and spa for tenants. Units in the residences also boast bespoke kitchens, large sky gardens, and automated systems throughout the space. The various styles available range from 1-3 bedrooms, with some incredible views in any direction, despite which floor the units on. Depending on the floor of the unit though, prices can range anywhere from 4 million to 23 million pounds.

The building is also near some of London’s most historic landmarks from Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, to the OXO Tower Wharf, to St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Tate Modern Art Museum. While there is still work to be done on the behemoth of Bankside, it seems that this will be one of many properties soon to open in London that will be bringing new life into the city as an international marketplace for real estate both as investments and residential luxury.

Foster and Partners, constructed more as a piece of art than anything else, according to the firm, which designed the building. The building also features a modern aesthetic, with the lobby’s circular stairway around their 24-hour concierge service, and contemporary fixtures in each unit. The building is built in three sections of home styles: City House, Upper House, and Penthouse, and range between expansive 1 to three bedrooms. The units feature open terraces, oak herringbone floors with under-floor heating, speakers in each bathroom, automated blinds and a home theatre system. The upper floors also have an incredible 360-degree view of the city from the Gherkin building all the way to St. Paul’s, the London Eye, and beyond.

The building is also in one of the best locales in the city. The luxury quality of the building is a great fit for anyone working in business or finance who may be commuting to work nearby in the area. Being near Shoreditch and the East End though, the new tower is a short walk away from some of the coolest new restaurants, shops, and happenings in London. Being next to Liverpool Street station also is a great asset, either for inter-city underground transit or access to the National Rail and express trains to Stansted Airport.

After being compared to other notable London architectural delights like the Gherkin, Cheesegrater, and Walkie-Talkie buildings though, the biggest question for the building’s team though is what cheeky name it will be dubbed with when it does become part of the skyline.
