Leadenhall Building

Modern Architecture London, United Kingdom

The wedge-shaped tower, called "the cheesegrater", is one of the tallest buildings in the Square Mile, with its 224.5 meters and 48 stories. Its particular shape was designed by Richard Rogers to preserve the view of St Paul's Cathedral.

The tower’s design ensures that from this key vantage point the cathedral’s dome is still framed by a clear expanse of sky.
