You would have thought they'd want to build that in London.

Only Croydon could take the idea of a futuristic glass-clad skyscraper and make it look cheap, tacky and like it's not finished at the bottom.

Croydon could soon be home to the UK’s second tallest building after plans to build a 68-storey skyscraper were given the go-ahead.

Even some people in Croydon will do anything to get away from the people that live on the ground.

Quite impressive if you ask me, just utter disappointment on its location.

Brilliant planning , build something really tall and nick all the windows from the surrounding buildings to glaze it .

You've got to hand it to the architects, as an homage to Croydon they've managed to incorporate flickering flames into the design of the building. :bowdown:

"‘The great challenge for Croydon has always been to change perceptions in its own right and this will help the town to put the town on the map."

That will be the "Great Fires of London" Map then !

Mark Waterstone, chief executive of Rosepride Properties Ltd, said: ‘Once this scheme has been delivered, nobody will be in any doubt that Croydon is not just a London suburb, but very much a destination in its own right.’

And somewhere to avoid !
