Heron Tower, officially designated 110 Bishopsgate and located on Bishopsgate in London's City of London financial district, is a 230-metre commercial skyscraper completed in 2011. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and constructed between 2007 and 2011, the modern structure rises as the second-tallest building in the City of London and the fifth-tallest in Greater London and the United Kingdom, its height including a 28-metre mast. Built from stainless steel, glass, and steel, the tower is owned by Heron International but became informally known as Salesforce Tower following a 2014 naming dispute with tenant Salesforce.com, though the property retained its official address. The building initially faced challenges attracting occupants during the Great Recession but is now fully let.
