Steel from Mittal for London's Olympic monument
The mayor of London has unveiled the design of a 115-metre tall monument that will mark the 2012 London Olympics.
The structure, which will be built in the Olympic Park, has a strong India connection as it is designed by prize-winning artist of Indian-origin, Anish Kapoor, and is being funded by steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal.
This spiraling structure that incorporates the five Olympic rings will be London's answer to the Eiffel Tower. It will be taller than New York's Statue of Liberty, offering panoramic views of London.
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London, called the statue, "a legacy of the Olympics to London".
