City views

Last Friday the church walking group ventured into the City of London around the Monument area. Thirteen of us noticing the changes in this area, Ian especially aware of the changes since he was involved with the construction of Richard Rogers’s Lloyds building. The main attraction was to view the Garden in the Sky from the 35th floor of the Walkie Talkie building at 20 Fenchurch Street,  names and tickets were obtained beforehand, be prepared for long queues and airport style security checks but so worth it.

Following are the phone photos I took of the views, slight mist on horizon to the south west of the City, otherwise perfect weather and not cold at all. I expected to see more green walls and roof gardens, the tops of many buildings were quite ugly.

  1. Taking pictures through glass panels is not easy, but you managed quite well. Maybe a bit more green will be visible as spring moves along and more leaves grow on trees and shrubs.
