The London Olympic Tower - Your Thoughts
 
Now.. I'm not to keen on it tbh.. but it's got the go ahead.

It is called 'The ArcelorMittalOrbit' It will be 375 feet high -that's 72 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty. It will sit next to the Olympic Stadium

Personally i thought this entry, 'The London Cloud' should have won!!

Smithy 31-03-2010 09:53 PM

My first thoughts exactly. lol
It might look better when it's built? haha

GypsyGoth 31-03-2010 09:54 PM

I love it, it looks kinda crazy.

Smithy 31-03-2010 09:55 PM

The Cloud looks better tbh Claudia

setanta 31-03-2010 09:55 PM

It looks like an eyesore to me, and what's with the red?

ILoveTRW 31-03-2010 09:55 PM

everyone was hating on the london eye before they built that
amd look where it is now, almost every major city in the uk has its own wheel

I think it's going to be a resturant at the top which is fair enough but for all of that money, for a *****ing resturant i mean come on.. It seems kinda silly!

LOL. Oh my, good point. I would have thought they would have a lift?

setanta 31-03-2010 10:06 PM

This is modern art just going too far. Hideous looking thing that will never stand the test of time. It's already an eyesore to me and it hasn't even been built yet.

GypsyGoth 31-03-2010 10:27 PM

I bet it turns out to be an april fools joke.
