It is hard to keep up with the pace of building in the City of London, and this walk takes us around some of the massive skyscrapers that have rapidly appeared in the past few years.

These are mostly commercial, and mostly by well -known architects, we will explore the buildings and their surroundings. The historic heritage of the City is still visible, and is often framed or reflected in these gleaming spires.

... Ian Swankie is a Londoner with a contagious enthusiasm for art and architecture. Since 2012 he has led a popular weekly independent art lecture group in his hometown of Richmond in West London. He is an accredited lecturer for The Arts Society, and a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Art Scholars, one of the City Livery Companies.
