The Shard
This is a building shaped like the piece of glass. It opened in 2013, London. It is the tallest building in the European Union. It is approximately 306 metres tall. It was designed by an Italian Achitect Renzo Piano.
Being a tall building this give it a basic good reason to be a precedent for my observation tower. At 244 meters it also has an observation deck.
The shard has a very good spacial arrangement. Being a very big ad dominant building in a busy area, you would expect it to affect the environment hugely. It still has space on the ground for people to walk. It is also being around water, It make the landscape more spacious and reduces the impact on the environment.
