Landmark

The last time we found ourselves in London was for Broadgate. Sadly Landmark is nowhere near as high or impressive but its something to pass the time i suppose. Current build height for Tower A is 33 floors while its brother B is following at 29. We ended up climbing both towers and each gave different views of the town not possible from the other.

Access was simple, well simple ish. We hopped a fence which had three levels of foundations the other side. A quick slip from tank saw him millimeters away from skewering his head on a iron pole, luckily he managed to escape with just a few scrapes and bruises.

We headed down and towards the first tower. Hmm. The views from the very top were, well, sh**. Large Advertisement hoarding meant unless you had a three meter tripod handy you weren't going to see anything. Rubbish. Luckily i spied a half decent vantage point. A sketchy support pillar with the dodgyiest ladders known to man, They weren't even bolted on. We were lucky in the fact it was just turning dark so we had the perfect clear blue skies before the nasty black or yellow skies descended upon us. A few snaps of Canary Wharf and we headed to Tower B which we thought we be better.

After the long climb down and back up again i was disappointed to find out, it wasn't much better. Although this Tower had no hoarding in the way it now had another problem. The other tower. It wasn't so much of a problem with cropped or portrait shots but landscapes had to be centered left to exclude the building from frame.

We had a little mooch to the roof and the cranes then decided to call it a day and get a Mcflurry. But oh no, McDonald's had "No Ice cream", any cheeseburgers? "Nope". What a service!.
