The design, by Richard Rogers, includes "four blocks made of glass and red weathered steel" – however, unnamed "sources" reveal that "the four penthouse flats could feature bullet proof windows, specially purified air and even 'panic rooms'. The security system is believed to have been developed after consultation with the SAS." The presumed tenants will be "Arab princes and Russian oligarchs."
