A DRAMATIC FORM CREATES NEW EXCITEMENT
England's London Bridge Tower is an example of the new type of residential towers being built today. A dramatically tapering silouette form makes sense with wide floor plans near the ground level for retail or cultural space and condominiums on the upper floors. Smaller floors near the top mean that residents will never be more than a few steps from their windows and views. Two-thirds of the 66 floors in London Bridge Tower, due to be completed in2009, will contain homes and hotel rooms.
