HSBC, Canary Wharf

Just rounding off the buildings corners and increasing the window size makes the HSBC tower a more attractive building. 8 Canada Square was the first major London tower designed by Norman Foster. In May 2000 three construction workers were tragically killed when a crane collapsed during building. It has 42 floors and stands 656 feet high.
