English: After the Fire of London in 1666 Robert Hooke and his friend and colleague Christopher Wren worked to rebuild the city. Hooke's main task was surveying and planning and Wren's was building St. Paul's Cathedral and many churches. There is now a memorial to Hooke in the cathedral, adjacent to Wren's tomb. Another memorial to him is cited near The Monument which was designed by Hooke and Wren. It stands 202 feet high and is the tallest isolated stone column in the world. Inside it could house a telescope with a viewing room in the cellar and the column as part of it.
