Description
Taken late afternoon, the "Walkie Talkie" building as it's nicknamed (20 Fenchurch Street, London). It recently won the annual carbuncle award for the building judged to be the worst in Britain. In it's short history the 37 storey tower has been responsible for melting cars and critics have compared it's three-storey Roof Garden to an airport terminal.Related content

yep, it did win an award for that, and it does look completely out of place when viewed from across some of the bridges, it just stands out like a sore thumb (to say the least)!
