Europe's Tallest Building?

"...[A] public inquiry opens into the proposed 1,000 ft London Bridge Tower. Giles Worsley believes that, if approved, it will open the floodgates for a new generation of super-skyscrapers... Like all glass towers, London Bridge Tower can never be transparent, but Piano's manipulation of the elevation and its tapering form will give his building a variety and subtlety that few other skyscrapers have ever achieved. If you have to have a building on this scale, Piano's design is probably as good as you can get.But nothing can avoid the fact that this massive building will transform the scale of London. St Paul's Cathedral still holds its own against tall buildings in the City, but London Bridge Tower is three times its height."
