号称西欧第一高楼的伦敦大厦形似阳具遭嘲笑 [美国媒体]

New ￡800million London skyscraper billed as western Europe's tallest building is ridiculed for looking like male genitalia from the air 

号称西欧第一高楼的8亿英镑伦敦大厦在空中看像阳具遭嘲笑



From the ground, this planned 67-storey skyscraper looks entirely wholesome - but look down from a passing plane and it's a whole different story.

从地上看，这个计划中的67层大厦看起来相当壮美，但是坐飞机从天上往下看就完全是另一回事了。

The ￡800 million project, called Spire London, in London's docklands will provide luxury living for the 765 people who buy a home there, say developers.

这个8亿英镑的项目叫做伦敦塔尖，位于伦敦码头区，开发商说765个购房者将能享受到奢侈的生活环境。

But it has been pointed out that the tower looks like male genitalia from above - which is unfortunate, as it is close to London City Airport. 

但是有人指出从高空看这个大厦像男性生殖器——而不巧的是，这座建筑靠近伦敦城市机场。



Website Londonist observed of these air passengers: 'If they are as infantile as us, they will see a massive dong.'

Londonist网站评论道：“如果这些飞机乘客像我们一样幼稚的话，他们将看到一个巨型的阳具。”

The skyscraper is expected to be open by 2020.

这座大厦预计在2020年投入使用。

At 771ft, the 67 storey building will be the tallest in the UK and Western Europe, more than 150-feet taller than St George Wharf Tower, currently the tallest residential building in the capital.

高771英尺，67层，将成为英国乃至西欧第一高楼，比圣乔治码头公寓还要高出150英尺，目前该公寓是伦敦最高的住宅楼。

All skyscrapers are phallic symbols, with everyone wanting to build/own/be in the biggest. A little symbol on top is the least of their worries.

所有的大厦都是阳具象征，大家都想建造/拥有/住进最大的那一栋。人们最不在乎的就是楼顶上有没有那样的标志。

This is a pathetic headline for a story, and the story is also pathetic.

这个新闻标题太差劲了，而这本身就是一个差劲的新闻。

We need to build one a week to House the New Migrants in; or the Streets will be full of dossers.

我们每周都得建造一座大厦，这样才能安置新进入的移民，否则街上将充满流浪者。

Is it going to be a brothel? Might need to be bigger if it is expected to service the needs of all the City's bankers.

是用来做妓院的吗？如果是用来服务这个城市的银行家的话，可能要建得更大点。

Has the daily mail heard of the shard which is 1000ft? So how can it be western Europe's tallest building? Terrible journalism, not even Londons tallest

碎片大厦不是1000英尺高吗？所以这座大厦怎么可能是第一？真是乱报道，甚至无法成为伦敦第一高楼。
