City Hall London

A stunning relatively new building near Tower Bridge on the south bank. Once described as a "glass testicle" by ex-major Ken Livingstone. City Hall is a 45 metres high glass globe. The building has 10 floors and 185,000 sq ft (gross) of floor space. City Hall has no front or back. Its shape is derived from a geometrically modified sphere. The idea is to minimise the surface area exposed to direct sunlight. The design incorporates a number of features designed to make the building as environmentally friendly as possible.
