Yes it's the new Swiss Re Markets place/ Designed by Sir Norman Foster, it's built on the place where one of the bombs went off. It's nickname is The Gerkin. It has a unique design that makes the most of natural light.

Norman Foster says it was actually based on a sea sponge rather than a gherkin, so it is based on nature.
