London Corporation Planning and Transportation Committee, added:\u00a0&quot;The opening of Horizon 22 is yet another huge vote of confidence in the City\u2019s status, not only as a global business hub, but also as a seven-day-a-week destination for everyone to enjoy. <\/p>\n<p>&quot;On top of the much-needed office space that 22 Bishopsgate provides, I am delighted that we can now widely share its free-to-access, public viewing gallery, which promises some of the best possible views of London.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>The UK is home to plenty of other viewing platforms too, and some of them aren&#x27;t as well-known either.<\/p>\n<p>Inside Terminal 4 at London Heathrow Airport, holidaymakers will be able to find a secret viewing platform. <\/p>\n<p>View Heathrow is tucked between two
