It's owned by Heron International and is still popularly known as Heron Tower, though following a naming dispute in 2014 involving the tenant Salesforce.com that the City of London planning committee made it clear they would rule in favour of the property being officially named 110 Bishopsgate, even though the application was withdrawn before it went to committee. The tower originally struggled to attract tenants at the depths of the Great Recession, but is now fully let.
