5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating, 26 Mar 2009

By	MB241 - See all my reviews

This book provides the complete story of 30 St Mary Axe from conception to occupancy. The quality of photography and writing is excellent, and it is a truly fascinating read. If you have any interest in tall buildings, architecture, or London, this book is well worth purchasing - particularly as it highlights some of the lesser known individuals who were crucial in the building's realisation.

Individual chapters focus on the site's history, the design and planning process, construction, and the cultural impact of the building. The depth of detail provided for each is excellent, while the book has proven both useful for research and enjoyable to read for pleasure. Highly recommended.
