Paul Finch’s Tuesday talk

A sketch of Paul Finch’s insightful talk on Tuesday.

I found myself reflecting on the Thatcher legacy as I walked through the city the next morning, traffic free on account of her funeral. I stopped to admire the clarity of RSH’s new ‘cheese grater’ building under construction. You could fit about a third of the height of the iconic Lloyds building across the street into the lobby of the new building.  Lloyds was completed a couple of years after Thatcher came to power, and seemed like a pretty big building back then. It looks pretty small now, but packs a lot of ideas in compared to the new breed of monumental neighbours.
