What has happened to the Citygroup tower?

They are removing the logo on Citigroup tower:

What would that mean? No Lehman, no Citigroup?… No Canary Wharf? No London???

What about 2012 Olympics then?

Good that I did not accept their offer in 2006.

Well, the London office was in big troubles already then. During that summer I wrote a report for my school http://citigroup.of-cour.se/ and decided not to stay with the company, unless that would be really the last resort.

That decision turned out to be so right.

Been to Canary Wharf recently. Looks like Citigroup just launched a rebranding campaign “Citi never sleeps” … the most funny is “Insight never sleeps” …

While I agree with them that it maybe the best time to run a campaign, the quality remains doubtful.

Love London Star’s comment on http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=724918:

“New sign on order, the new one will say CITICRUNCH.”

Hmmm, then I would reuse at least first four letters 😉 every penny counts these days, even for Citi that came with strange jingles.

The bank is actual.ly struggling to survive. Its luck is that it is too of behemoth for the government to let it fall:
