My wonder is the Eurostar terminal at St Pancras - one of the few buildings in London that genuinely has the "wow" factor. Not only was the decision to refurbish and re-use this building the right one, but the way that it has been done is truly impressive. The beautiful shape of Barlow's original building, built in the 1860s and, in its day, the largest enclosed space in the world, gives a wonderful feeling of light and space and is in marked contrast to the utilitarian look of the adjacent new domestic station. The refurbished Barlow building provides arriving passengers with a great first impression of London and is a building of which all can be proud.
