Nottingham's skyline has been transformed with the installation of the final section of Aspire, Britain's tallest free standing public work of art.
The Aspire tower at The University of Nottingham stands 60 metres tall — higher than the Angel of the North and taller than Nelson's Column and the Statue of Liberty. But what you actually see is just 16 per cent of the entire 850 tonne structure. Another 84 per cent is buried under ground to give Aspire its strength and support.
