Diller Scofidio & Renfro unveils plans for two towers at Museum of London site

摘要

Diller Scofidio & Renfro has unveiled new proposals for the Museum of London site in the Square Mile after its previous plans for a concert hall were scrapped. The architect is sticking to its plan to demolish the site’s existing 1970s buildings, but now wants to build a pair of office towers. The City of London had appointed the practice to design a £288m venue known as the Centre for Music on the site, which is currently occupied by the Museum of London. But this scheme was cancelled after Simon Rattle, the conductor for whom it was being built, announced that he was leaving the London Symphony Orchestra to return to Germany.
