Foreground left is the Royal Festuval Hall and on the right is the Shell Centre building. On the bank beyond Waterloo Bridge, first is the National Theatre, then the tall London Television Centre and beyond that is taller King's Reach Tower, a 1970s 31-storey office block. In the background just peeping up over the horizon is the unique Gherkin building, and far right, the not quite complete Shard skyscraper.
