Editing Lloyd's building (section)

=== Criticism ===
Prince Charles and others initially criticized the design of Lloyd's Building, similar to the backlash of Centre Pompidou.<ref name="Dezeen-2022"/><ref name="Londonist-2011" /> Rogers stated that, "Lloyds said they wanted two things: they wanted a building that would last into the next century – we made that one – and they wanted a building that would meet their changing needs."<ref name="Dezeen-2022"/> One of those changing needs relates to the much-vaunted design innovation of having the service pipes, ducts, and stairwells outside the walls led to such costs caused by weathering and maintenance that Lloyds considered vacating the building in 2014. 
Lloyd's former chief executive Richard Ward stated: "There is a fundamental problem with this building. Everything is exposed to the elements, and that makes it very costly."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dezeen.com/2014/06/01/lloyds-of-london-may-quit-richard-rogers-building-over-design-frustrations/#|title = Lloyd's of London may quit Rogers building over design "frustrations"|date = June 2014}}</ref>
