The Cheesegrater
Nicknamed the Cheesegrater due to its unusual wedge shape, the Leadenhall Building is a further addition to the continually changing skyline of the City of London.

A distinctive feature of both buildings is the exterior glass lifts, allowing occupants fantastic views of the cityscape.
