Looking north-west, and up to the roof tops from Centenary Way. On the right is part of the Birmingham Art Gallery and Museum. The tower block is 103 Colmore Row, the tallest offce building in the city, completed in 2021. It is a commercial block of 26 floors, 108 metres in height. It is on the site of the former Natwest Tower, itself only dating from 1975. Things aren't "built to last" any more, or so it seems.
