Willis Building, Commercial skyscraper on Lime Street, City of London, United Kingdom.
The Willis Building rises 125 meters into the sky with 26 floors and features distinct setbacks at 97 meters and 68 meters from ground level.
Construction of the Willis Building started in 2004, with its core topped out in July 2006 and the entire structure completed for opening in April 2008.
Norman Foster incorporated a crustacean shell design concept into the building's architecture, adding to London's collection of contemporary financial district structures.
The building provides 475,000 square feet of office space, primarily occupied by insurance broker Willis Group, with direct access to London's financial district.
The structure stands as the fourth-tallest building in the City of London, positioned strategically next to the Lloyd's Building within the financial quarter.
