Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Minerva Building was a skyscraper once planned for the eastern edge of London's main financial district, the City of London. If built, it would have been the first building in the City of London to contain more than 1,000,000 sq ft (100,000 m2) of office space.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Das Minerva Building war ein geplantes Bauwerk in der City of London. Es wurde erstmals um die Jahrtausendwende vom Immobilienentwickler Minerva plc vorgeschlagen. Im Laufe der Zeit änderten sich die Planungen mehrmals. Nach einigen Planungen wäre es mit 53 Stockwerken und 243 Metern Höhe bis zur Antenne das höchste Gebäude Londons geworden. Nachdem die Baugenehmigung schon erteilt war, wurde das Projekt aufgrund finanzieller Schwierigkeiten von Minerva plc 2006 ganz eingestellt. Anstelle des repräsentativen Minerva Buildings steht heute das mit 67 Metern Höhe deutlich kleinere St. Botolphs an dieser Stelle.
