| How the sphere would have looked by night |
THE Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan has refused planning consent for a giant entertainment venue sphere in the Stratford area of East London.
Birders had expressed concern that after-dark illumination of the sphere - 90 metres in height and 120 metres in width - risked disorientating night-migrating birds.
However, the prospect of 'light-spill' causing ecological harm was not what concerned the Mayor so much as the visual intrusion on nearby residents and the potentially adverse impact on the character of the area.
The unsuccessful applicant are MSG Sphere London.
