London may not have that many skyscrapers but thats what makes it special unlike many other cities chicago or ny they dont have skyscrapers clustered in to a grid which makes it boring I mean i went to ny before it wasn't that fun i

Investors in London have finally come to agree the only way is up... our Skyscraper boom is arriving 50 years later than in NYC and HC. We'll never have buildings that tall due to air restrictions and historical landmarks... but we may well have the most futuristic skyline in the world.

@JoshRobertson142 OK i did not quite know that, I know that when the economy is in a downturn in the worlds Global command centers London, New York, Tokyo, Investors dont spend until the markets rebound, but since its private investment the projects will continue as like you said they are backed by foreign investors in the middle east so these projects will indeed finish in time, wonder whens the completion date for all of them, cant wait to see it, London will look magnificent.

"Majority of these buildings will not be completed in time and within budget, with the UK economy still in a slight downturn" it doesn't matter, most of these buildings will be backed by money from the middle east

I LOVE LONDON! Past, Present and future in one city. Most cities can't do that. None in America, they lack the past and their future sucks. And most other cities in Europe just lack future and stick to present. London is perfect for all three.

Majority of these buildings will not be completed in time and within budget, with the UK economy still in a slight downturn, not enough money will be free up in time to get all these projects completed, i would really love for all these towers to be up and functioning in time for the 2012 Olympics. It is gonna be a dramatic change in the London skyline, the UK should really start to modernize its Infrastructure , London should have a great skyline like NYC, HK and Tokyo, in due time it will.
