英國倫敦一棟將于2020年落成的住宅大廈將成為全西歐最高的摩天大廈。但該座大廈被指形似男性生殖器而遭網友熱議。

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.
從地面上看去，這座按計劃修建的67層摩天大廈非常壯觀，但如果從路過的飛機上向下看，就完全是另外一回事了。

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.
這座耗資8億英鎊的建筑被稱為“倫敦之巔”，位于倫敦碼頭區。據開發商表示，765名購房業主將享有奢華的居住體驗。

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.
但有人指出，從上面看下去，這座建筑形似男性生殖器，這非常不幸，因為這里離倫敦市機場非常近。

The skyscraper is expected to be open by 2020.
這座摩天大廈預計于2020年建成。

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.
這座67層的建筑有771英尺（約合235米）高，將成為英國乃至西歐最高的建筑，比目前倫敦最高的住宅建筑喬治碼頭大廈還要高150英尺。

It will also be one of the most luxurious, with homeowners enjoying a paved piazza, sculptured benches, birch tree lined entrance driveways and a dancing fountain inspired by the one at Somerset House.
這座建筑也將成為最豪華的建筑之一，業主將享受到鋪設好的廣場，雕刻裝飾的長凳，私家車道旁栽著白樺樹，還有受薩默塞特府的設計師啟發而修建的音樂噴泉。

There will be a concierge at hand at an orchid shaped reception desk in the lobby with six metre high ceilings, columns, feature lighting and lounge seating.
大廳蘭花型的接待前臺處有看門人，大廳高6米，有廊柱，特色照明燈光以及休息區。

The frustration of waiting for a lift will disappear, with nine lifts providing a waiting time of just 35 seconds, say developers. Once in the lift, the cars will shoot up at six metres per second.
業主不會有等待電梯的焦慮。開發商表示，大廈有九部電梯，等待時間僅有35秒鐘。進入電梯轎廂后，運行速度為每秒6米。

It could make a natural partner to the famous Al Wakrah Stadium in Qatar, which will host matches during the 2022 World Cup.
這座大廈自然成為了著名的卡塔爾沃克拉體育場的好拍檔，2022年卡塔爾世界杯將在沃克拉體育場舉行。

Aerial images have led to it being described as the 'accidental vagina stadium'.
沃克拉體育場的航拍影像使之被稱為“意外的女性生殖器體育場”。
