Still standing
As it stood in 1997
The shape it held in its prime.
A riverside complex of interlocking, curving volumes sheathed in thousands of small, reflective titanium plates above a band of warm beige limestone. Large organic metal forms rise and overlap around a glazed, multi-storey atrium; the building sits beside a narrow estuary promenade and shallow reflecting water. Scale is monumental but folded into varied terraces, ramps and plazas, with a nearby tall glass tower on the skyline and a giant spider sculpture on the river terrace.
