Land Securities tops out One New Change (UK)

Land Securities has celebrated the topping out of its landmark City of London development, One New Change. The topping out ceremony, held on Tuesday, means that the structure is now complete and the last piece of cement has been placed at the top of the building. Designed by internationally-renowned Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel, One New Change is taking shape as a world-class contemporary building designed to complement its historic neighbor, St Paul's Cathedral. The development's design was drawn up in close consultation with St Paul's and the City.
