I am sure I head Peter Rees speak in glowing terms of this building and in particular how its unusual shape had a double gain for the public, a smaller footprint so more space on the ground but more space at the top, freely accessible to all as a new public park - and with the detached site allowing a fabulous view of the city cluster of odd looking high rise buildings. These facts are often looked in the dismissive commentary of this unique and highly successful (given news on letting) building that shows to the world that London is open for business - which I seem to remember being given as absolutely critical for the ongoing success of the economy in attracting bankers et al.
