Now, as it nears completion, the building has been transformed. Work boots and hard hats were no longer needed as I was given a sneak preview of the iconic new signature building. Final preparations are still being carried out — the drone of a drill or a banging of a hammer can still be heard, as can a few empty spaces and unpainted walls still be seen, along with a few wires sticking out here and there. ...	15th March 2012
