Foster's fails to win round Ealing tower opponents

摘要

Foster & Partners has failed to convince English Heritage and local residents to back plans for a controversial suburban skyscraper after altering its designs.rnIt emerged this week that the practice had amended its plans for the 40-storcy "penny whistle" tower in Ealing following strong criticism by the heritage body.rnDespite the changes, which included reorientating the tower by 25 degrees to reduce overshadowing, English Heritage and residents' group Save Ealing's Centre said they remain opposed to the tower, part of the wider Arcadia scheme, which also includes designs by HKR and John Pardey Architects.
