UK property company British Land has submitted plans for a 35-storey office tower in the centre of Birmingham, UK. The new development should replace the existing smaller NatWest structure if the city council gives the go-ahead to the new £ 160mln (EUR 203mln) scheme. 'We believe we have designed not only a landmark building but also one that will bring real and tangible benefits to Birmingham city centre and to its business community. The design will play a vital role in maintaining the vibrancy and reputation of the city’s business district and we are very excited about the scheme', British Land's CEO Robert Samuel said to newspaper the Birmingham Post.
