The steelwork supports are fascinating to walk by - massive and intense for the area.
It's like part of an oil refinery was dropped in, or some unbuilt piece of industrial constructivism.

I think this is the one tower that could have asked for more, it has so much positive support already.
Either way, I think 50 is good.
