The Sky Garden At A Glance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s head to the City! Nestled in the heart of London\u2019s financial district, the Sky Garden resides at the top of 20 Fenchurch Street, a 37-story skyscraper designed by Uruguayan architect Rafael Vi\u00f1oly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nicknamed the “Walkie-Talkie” due to its unusual shape, 20 Fenchurch Street is one of the newest towers in the City, having been completed in 2014. The construction came with a hefty price tag of \u00a3200 million! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sky Garden spans the top three floors of this 160-meter-high building, which is just over half the height of The Shard<\/a>, the tallest tower in the UK\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
