30 St Mary Axe → The Gherkin – Common name, per Ngrams. I don't believe WP:THE applies here as it is always known as "The Gherkin" and never as simply "Gherkin". Tim O'Doherty (talk) 20:55, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Most google hits for "30 St Mary Axe" note that it is also or more commonly known as The Gherkin (and the main ones that don't are address listings). Thryduulf (talk) 09:55, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

700 sq ft?
editIn the Technical Details section, the floor area is listed in sq meters with a decimal point and then later in sq ft. It's that period meant to remark 1000s meaning the sq footage is closer to 700,000 sq ft? T. Woody Sobey (talk) 06:50, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
