The old river rested unruffled, spread out in the tranquil dignity of a waterway, leading to the uttermost ends of the Earth. What greatness had not floated on the ebb of that river, into the mystery of an unknown Earth. The dreams of men, the seed of commonwealths, the germs of empires...

Good choice of river. I am also a fan.
>There is no river in the world to be compared for majesty and the witchery of association, to the Thames; it impresses even the unreading and unimaginative watcher with a solemnity which he cannot account for, as it rolls under his feet and swirls past the buttresses of its many bridges; he may think, as he experiences the unusual effect, that it is the multiplicity of buildings which line its banks, or the crowd of sea-craft which floats upon its surface, or its own extensive spread. In reality he feels, although he cannot explain it, the countless memories which hang for ever like a spiritual fog over its rushing current.

But her own king she likens to his Thames;
Serene yet strong, majestic yet sedate,
Swift without violence, without terror great.

This might be the only picture in the thread that tries to underline the beauty associated with it through text.

These only remind me of the horrors of Britain's old heritage being mixed with vomitworthy postmodern architecture.

The Gherkin is great. I like it. In the context of the other buildings in the City cluster it works well too, and that cluster still isn't finished. The central, tallest building of the cluster, is being built currently. Pic related, CGI showing what it will look like
