Building would be tallest in Square Mile

Foster + Partners has submitted plans for the tallest building in the City of London – a 305m visitor attraction shaped like a giant tulip.

The proposed scheme on land at 20 Bury Street will be built next door to the architect’s Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe, which was the first in the cluster of towers in the area when it was completed by Skanska back in 2004.
