London reaches for the clouds: Iconic skyline will be transformed with record 76 skyscrapers finishe
(Courtesy of the Daily Mail) A record 76 new skyscrapers will stand against the capital's skyline as more towers hit London than any other year in the city's history.
This year will see more buildings of 20 storeys or more being erected, which is more than three times the total that were finished last year.
Figures revealed today by the London Tall Buildings Survey show the highest concentration will be in the borough of Tower Hamlets, once famed for being home to the working classes that populated the East End.
