Competition Literature (pdf format)

Identify the six famous structures silhouetted in the competition literature (help!)....

....then email your answers to [EMAIL="regen.ipad@hanson.com"]regen.ipad@hanson.com[/EMAIL]

There is also supposed to be an online entry form at www.hanson.com/uk/regen but I can't find it. :(

NOTE: It's probably a good idea to include a telephone number along with your details in your email as the terms state that is how winners will be notified.

* Only one entry per person

* You may only name a maximum of 6 structures in your entry.

* The five winners will each receive an iPad.

* Winners will be notified by telephone within 7 days of the draw.

Full T&C's HERE (pdf format)

Good luck. :)

    I can see (I think)

    The Leaning Tower of Pisa
    The Gherkin (not it's real name) (Just trying to find google that - Is it 30 St Mary Axe?)

    ETA: I think one may be Empire State Building

    ETA (again): Google images would suggest Sears Towers (the building with the points on top)

    [STRIKE]Could the building beside the bridge like building be Burj Al Arab?[/STRIKE] That would be a no then:rotfl:

    30 St Mary Axe (Formerly the Swiss Re building) in London

    Leaning Tower of Pisa

    Empire State Building (not 100% sure this is correct though)
  • Gosh this is hard! I can see The Leaning Tower of Pisa, The Gherkin, and the one on the right is possibly Big Ben (St Stephen's Tower). The bridge looks familiar but I can't place it. I thought the spiky one was The Shard but that has no lump at the side.

    The one on the right could be Jin Mao or the Empire State. Please see my later post for comparison pics. What do you reckon? Pretty sure the one on the left is the Sears Tower though.
