Interesting... I had the exact opposite impression from @mburrrrr's last angle, particularly compared to some of the stumpy renderings in the database (north views in particular mind you).

Given the roof steel will possibly(?) reach to a height not that far below the crane cabin in that shot... bettin' the east and west views have a shot at even soaring quite a bit. Either way... thrilled with the results already, compared to the renders.

Here's hoping the steel roof reaches the height you suggest.

This feels like the most "City of London" building we have going on rn, and I'm not mad about that at all. So far I'd say it's exceeding the renders, mostly due to the clear/opaque stripes.

The glass is the most impressive part for me so far. It's beautiful and capture's light and reflections so well.

some great reflections from the angled glass:

She is Beautiful. The angled glass is what I love. Not sure which one I love more. This or CIBC square

London has nicknames for its skyscrapers: "the walkie-talkie', "the cheese grater" etc. What should we call this tower?

 

[innsertnamehere]

Cheese Grater. Even if it's already taken.. it's got the side scoop things, the grater edges, and the upward angled shape... spitting image.

The cut outs look like USB ports

 

[ushahid]

no looks like bottle opener.

I like how the glass facets facing up catch the light to create the illusion that the building is clad in some opaque white material. It's the only building that somehow becomes more colourful on overcast days.
