City Hall on the Thames

I was playing tourist in London, wandering along the riverfront to take in the city’s mix of
old and new. From the north bank of the Thames, near Tower Pier, I spotted
London’s City Hall — its unusual, slanted glass curves making it look like a spaceship
parked by the water. Against the backdrop of sharp-edged modern towers and a moody
London sky, it felt both out of place and perfectly at home.
