Description
This brutalist office tower sits beside the busy Temple Way road, that links Bristol city centre to the M23, and the pedestrianised Cabot Circus and Broadmead shopping areas.  Its owners describe it as, "... one of the most prominent buildings in Bristol." which, since it rises to 80 metres and houses 18 floors, is certainly true. 



The Pevsner Guide says that it features, "Unbroken concrete verticals with narrow glazing strips, terminating in a flared top."
