--
The Leadenhall Building, nicknamed the Cheesegrater, could become the tallest skyscraper in the City of London, at 225 metres / 48 storeys. It is designed by Richard Rogers, the man behind Lloyds of London, the Dome, and the Pompidou Centre in Paris. Despite its height, the building has a relatively small amount of office space (500,000 sq ft), due to its unusual profile which means the floorplates gradually decrease the higher up it goes. The slanting wedge-shaped design would be a stunning addition to the London skyline. The base will feature a 90-foot high atrium that will extend the public area of St Helens whilst providing shelter from wind and rain. Glass lifts will carry employees up the outside of the building, similar to those on the Lloyds Building only twice the height!
