LETTER: Paternoster Square revisited
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From Mr B. W. Tullett
Sir: I have a personal interest in the development of Paternoster Square as I worked as a young teenager on the original development in the Sixties, and, as it was my first job in the construction industry, I had never seen anything so vast being built. At the time, it was obviously described as modern architecture and the shape of the future, but, even as a young lad, I thought it should have complemented St Paul's Cathedral. As St Paul's is one of our major tourist attractions, it would make the surrounding area that much more attractive if the new development and St Paul's could be thought of as one.
Yours sincerely,
B. W. Tullett
