Look at it. Just… look at it.
This is the London Gate. It’s 100-metres tall and has some sort of bizarre glass elevator attached to it.
Until I’d seen it had been posted on Londonist, I was almost sure this was a wind up.
They’ve described it as a set of giant goalposts – goalposts which will sit at the beginning of High Street 2012 – the name given to the road which runs from the City straight through to Romford.
Intriguing stuff, and for those of us who think it looks a bit daft, there is one saving grace: it’s only temporary.
But then again – they said that about the Eiffel Tower.
That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen.
