The tallest building in the city is the 24-storey, 113.4 m (372 ft) One London Place.[1] This building is the tallest office building in Ontario outside of Toronto. Originally there were plans to construct a twin tower called Two London Place, however, due to the recession of the early ’90s, this structure was never built.
