London is globally recognised for its bespoke mixture of Tudor, Elizabethan, Georgian, and Victorian architecture. But just like anything else, trends in architecture are evolving albeit slower than other industries. Bricks and mortar seem to be a thing of the past; glass is taking over! Now don’t get me wrong, I for one love the combination of traditional and modern architecture as it makes for an interesting city. That said however, when a beautiful classic construction, that of which’s design transports you through time, gets torn down to build a contemporary glass structure resembling the office blocks in Canary Wharf, in a road flaunting classic buildings, one wonders what developers are thinking. What will London eventually look like? Will this historic city lose its distinct character that has helped make it what it is today?
