25 Cabot Square is a tall office building in London, England. It is located in an area called Canary Wharf. This building has 17 floors and is home to a big company called Morgan Stanley.

About the Building

The building was designed by a famous group of architects named Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. It was finished in 1991.

25 Cabot Square stands 81 metres (about 266 feet) tall. That's as high as a 27-story building! Inside, it has a lot of space, about 41,666 square metres. This is like having enough room for more than six football fields.

Connected to Another Building

For some years, 25 Cabot Square was linked to a nearby building. This building was called 20 Cabot Square. A special enclosed walkway connected the two buildings on the first floor.

This walkway made it easy for people to go between the two buildings. However, the link was removed in 2010. This happened when Morgan Stanley moved out of 20 Cabot Square.

Modern Makeover

In June 2017, work began to make the building look new again. This was a big project to update and improve 25 Cabot Square. The updates were finished in stages, starting in December 2018.
