Officially opening tomorrow, Londons tallest building : the 620 ft Post Office Tower with, at the very top, its sensational Panorama of London revolving restaurant. But the restaurant won t be ready for business until the Spring and opening night, date of which hasn t yet been fixed, is fully booked. Hundreds of early applications for tables in the 120 seater eating out place have been received. The £ 2 500 000 Post Office Towers supremacy of the London skyline is unlikely to be rivalled. Higher buildings are banned because they could interfere with radio waves from the towers aerials, which eventually will make possible 10 000 simultaneous television conversations and transmission of up to forty television networks. There are 29 storeys.

London's Tallest Building, the 620 ft Post Office Tower, Officially Opening Tomorrow
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Get ready to be amazed as London's skyline is forever changed with the grand opening of the magnificent Post Office Tower tomorrow. Soaring high at a staggering height of 620 feet, this architectural marvel will dominate the cityscape like never before. At its pinnacle lies an extraordinary attraction that promises to leave visitors breathless – the sensational Panorama of London revolving restaurant. However, eager diners will have to wait until spring for their chance to experience this culinary delight as it won't be ready for business just yet. In fact, the highly anticipated opening night remains a mystery as it has already been fully booked. The demand for tables in this exquisite 120-seater eatery has been overwhelming, with hundreds of early applications flooding in. And who can blame them? The £2,500,000 Post Office Tower stands unrivaled in its supremacy over London's skyline. But there is more than meets the eye with this iconic structure. Higher buildings are prohibited due to potential interference with radio waves from its aerials. These cutting-edge technologies will soon enable an astounding 10,000 simultaneous television conversations and transmit up to forty television networks. As we eagerly await tomorrow's official unveiling and embrace this new era in telecommunications history, let us marvel at all twenty-nine storeys that make up this monumental feat of engineering and design.
