Landmark Pinnacle on London 's Isle of Dogs is the tallest residential building in Europe .
Invicta House , a council-owned block on an estate just outside Margate , is a mere 14 floors.
Both towers have stunning views of the Kent coast and the looping Thames respectively.
But there are significant differences, concerns have crept up at both.
In spite of their differences, something the residents of both are dependent on lifts.
Residents of Landmark Pinnacle and Invicta House have something else in common - a degree of powerlessness.
The tenants in Margate rely on Thanet District Council , on their building manager.
They all live in a building they do not own - and the leaseholders in east London rely on the council.
Government plans further reforms to leasehold laws building on changes introduced by Conservatives .
Landmark Pinnacle resident David Bond says council officials “build a big wall” when he raises concerns about the lifts and delays to building safety work.
