One of my favourite projects under construction currently. Does anybody know what are those black panels at the corners of the existing structure top?
 
This will be the tallest thing within about a 700m radius. From the north and west, this will have a Shangri-La type dominance on views for quite a while.
 
The dark L-Shapes are spandrel to cover up the transfer column and beams
 
I never realized the Tata (former Zurich) building had that big smock stack. Seems...incredibly out of place.
