Developer Irvine Sellar met architect Renzo Piano over lunch in Berlin in 2000 to discuss a tower beside London Bridge station. Piano based the tapering, spire-like form on the church spires and ship masts he saw in Canaletto’s 18th-century paintings of the Thames, completing the 309.6-metre tower in 2012.
Shangri-La opened its first UK property across floors 34 to 52 in May 2014, making it the highest hotel in Western Europe. A dedicated lift carries guests from the ground floor entrance straight to the Sky Lobby, and the 52nd-floor bar, GŎNG, holds the title of London’s highest.
