Sorry to hear you’re rough at the minute Dave. I hope you soon feel better.

Keep on top of it Dave. It is bad enough having cancer without letting the side effects make you miserable. If it is any consolation, I threw up every Complan shake they gave me so they put me on high doses of anti-sickness. Cyclizine is pretty good too, although it leaves me pretty spaced out.

New Street Signal Box funny enough closed last week after 50 odd years. Apparently some of the original equipment was in use to the end. As it’s listed it will remain although future use is yet to be confirmed.

One of my first jobs was for Sheppard Robson Architects funny enough. Although not a big fan of many of their buildings. Wood Green Shopping Centre for example is terrible.

The Barbican.

Achingly on point brutalist exterior, shonky 60s plumbing.

Be careful posting pictures. Before you know it the 20th Century Society will be trying to have it listed as a remarkable piece of architecture.

It has clear influences on the the later Lloyds Building and Pompidou Centre.

Structural expressionism written all over it :+1:

Presumably that’s for the coffee machine they must’ve provided?
