The Shard, Ruins, Architectural Sensibility

The Shard can eat its heart out – this is Britain's beauty | Simon Jenkins | Comment is free | The Guardian:
" . . . . This worm at least appears to be turning. There are thousands of battered old buildings and rundown neighbourhoods that merit the Astley treatment, retaining the spirit of place that comes with the continuous occupation of land. Here is a ruin brought back into constructive use. Its celebration is the result of an architectural sensibility that honours the debt of the past to the future. Let us hope it is widely imitated."
