It stands 230 metres (755 feet ) tall including its 28-metre (92 ft) mast which makes it the tallest building in the City of London financial district and the third tallest in Greater London and the United Kingdom, after the Shard in Southwark and One Canada Square at Canary Wharf. 110 Bishopsgate is located on Bishopsgate and is headquartered in Camomile Street, Outwich Street and Houndsditch. Construction of the building started in 2007 and has been completed in 2011.



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clear they would rule in favour of the property being officially named 110 Bishopsgate, even though the application was withdrawn before it went to committee.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.

Informations

St. Stephen's Cathedral (more commonly known by its German Name: Stephansdom) is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vienna and the seat of the Archbishop of Vienna, Christoph Cardinal Schönborn, OP.

The current Romanesque and Gothic sort of the cathedral, seen now in the Stephansplatz, was mostly initiated by Duke Rudolf IV (1339--1365) and stands on the ruins of two earlier churches, the first a parish church consecrated in 1147. The main religious building in Vienna, St. Stephen's Cathedral has borne witness to a lot of important events in Habsburg and Austrian history and has, with its multi-coloured tile roof, become among the city's most recognizable symbols.
