I live in Woolwich and see this thing most days. Bloody eyesore. Interesting to see the chap from the planning department apologising. Bit late now...
On Monday just gone, the Firm I work for moved into 20 Fenchurch Street - more commonly known as the Walkie Talkie. I'm typing this whilst sat at my desk on the 32nd floor. Stunning view of St Paul's and across West London. Best bit of the view is not being able to see the building I'm in. Iconic it may be. Attractive it certainly ain't.
As per the link in the Guardian article I've linked to, Maupassant may have been on to something...
