Description

The towers are inspired by the Pillars of Hercules which were the two mountains on either side of the sea which signified that no one could go beyond the Straits of Gibraltar as the Atlantic Ocean started and this was uncharted. The two 20 storey towers are linked together by a glass hall way.
