Towering new skyscraper setting fire

Tourists who will be visiting London in the near future might want to check out the city’s hottest new property: a 37-story skyscraper known at 20 Fenchurch Street, dubbed the “Walkie-Talkie Tower” because of its curved shape.
But beware: when the sun reaches a certain position in the sky and hits the tower at a particular angle, the reflected beam of sunlight is intense and, in fact, it’s being blamed for melting cars, setting carpet ablaze, and blotching paint on buildings.
On Monday, street-level temperatures beneath this beam of light soared to 150 degrees in Eastcheap, which is the present focal point for the beam–or ground zero.
Townsfolk are seething, and a little bit frightened.
This concentrated beam of sunlight, which has been referred to as a “solar death ray,” only recently became a serious issue, as the position of the sun has changed with the changing of the season.
