122 Leadenhall Street, Skyscraper in City of London, United Kingdom.
The 230-meter-tall Leadenhall Building features a distinctive wedge shape and glass facade with 48 floors above ground and 44 floors below ground.
Construction of the building began in 2011 after the demolition of a 1960s structure that served as headquarters for the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company.
The building's tapered form responds to protected views of St Paul's Cathedral, integrating modern architecture within London's historical landscape.
The structure contains 610,000 square feet of office space, including a 30-meter-high public atrium and gathering area at ground level.
The building employs a steel Megaframe instead of a concrete core, with external yellow-painted service cores visible on its exterior.
