Nice photo.

London sure has its share of unique modern buildings...all with unique names.

I'm really pleased with the quality of that scan and have laser printed it...I think I will add it to the two prints I have of Thames barges unloading their cargo of hay for the thousands of horses in London (back in another age) the prints are waiting to be framed and that Coppery Thames from the present day would look very good, hung between the two

Or as Prince Charles describes them as 'monstrous carbuncles'. I'm inclined to agree with him on this but then again I still live in 1972.
