13 Pictures That Show How Much London Has Changed In The Last Six Years
With the magic of the slidey thing you can see just how much London has evolved since 2008. OMG LDN.
1. The Shard, from London Bridge.
2. Looking north from London Bridge.
3. 20 Fenchurch Street (aka the Walkie Talkie).
4. Looking south from Blackfriars Bridge.
Although it may look like the photo on the right is older, it was actually taken in 2014, while the one on the left is from 2008. Redevelopment of the tall building in the middle of the shot – the South Bank Tower – began in 2013, which is why it looks in worse shape than it did in 2008.
