EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Post Office Tower, also known as the BT (British Telecom) Tower, standing proudly against the London skyline from Percy Street in the W1 area. The construction of this modernist landmark began in 1961 and was completed in July 1964. The tower's distinctive design, with its tapering form and helical ramps, quickly became a symbol of the 1960s and a must-see attraction for both locals and tourists. Situated in the heart of the city, the Post Office Tower offers an unobstructed view of the bustling metropolis below. In this image, we see the tower's impressive height towering over the surrounding buildings, casting long shadows on the quiet street below. The vibrant colors of the shop fronts and the red awning of the quaint restaurant add a touch of warmth and charm to the otherwise monochromatic scene. As the sun begins to set, the tower's reflective glass facade mirrors the changing hues of the sky, creating a breathtaking display of light and color. The Post Office Tower, a true testament to London's architectural history, continues to captivate and inspire visitors with its unique design and stunning views of the city.
