London - 20 Fenchurch Street, the "Walkie Talkie", beside the Wren church St Margaret Pattens.
20 Fenchurch Street in the City of London is popularly known as the Walkie Talkie by Londoners. It's top three floors are The Sky Garden, a complex of several restaurants and bars around a three story atrium tropical garden open to the public. The church in the foreground is St Margeret's Patten, founded in 1067 and rebuilt by Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of London between 1684 and 1687. There were several St Margaret's churches in the City of London at the time. To distinguish this one from others, it was named for Pattens, a kind of undershoe of wood, leather and metal, that was sold nearby.
