22 Bishopsgate

22 Bishopsgate’s official name is Twentytwo. This 278 metre 62 floor building is due to be completed in 2019.

Following the recession building was suspended, the original plans were scrapped and a new design emerged. It’ll still be the second tallest building in London (the tallest in the City), but the recently approved 1 Undershaft will take this title on completion, sometime in the mid 2020s.

To answer that question I’ve built this ‘enhanced gigapixel’ – where information is overlaid onto the image. You can click on an info point to…

  • Artillery Ground, Evening

    This cityscape overlooks a part of the City of London that many of those dashing down the streets of Finsbury will never see.
