Beautiful building. I've sadly heard it's structurally unsound and there are major deflection problems with the concrete balconies

I like the Lloyd's of London building there, it looks totally appropriate for that bunch. It's only missing pitch-black smoke coming out the top I like buildings the way I like cars, with an almost oppressive sense of purpose lol. http://www.the-titanic.com/Titanic/file ... 30059e.jpg

Belfast seems to be a hot centre for really cool new architectural projects. I'm planning to head up at some point to check this one out and the new giants' causeway visitor centre

That Victoria Square building is rather interesting, the rest look bland TBH.

Yeah, only recent ones that came to mind as I was struggling not to smash my skull into my new tablet (septic stock browser, should have known better).

That BT building is Fugly. I've never liked it. The Waterfront building is certainly nice. I've not been to the Titanic building yet.

That Waterfront building looks like a spaceship that has taken root.

St Pancras looks awesome inside since it's been done up.
