Working

Building up is one thing but building down is another. Neighbours of footballer Henry Theiry are upset that he has been granted permission to go ahead with his new home that will incorporate a 40ft high fish tank. I'm not sure why they say high when all this will be underground. That's the way they do things in the wealthy part of town. Height restrictions have resulted in mansions going down rather than up. I guess the fish wont mind.

Behind Schedule

April is a bit elastic in Leicester Square.

I don't know if any red carpet events are scheduled for May, but if they are we'd better supply the stars with hard hats.

For those of you not familiar with Leicester Square, it is where the main movie theatres are and where all the premiers of new movies are held. The square has been in a process of refurbishment since 2010.

Progress Report

As promised a progress report on the Kings Cross building with the lighthouse on top. A day or two after this photo was taken the sides have been boarded up and scaffolding put up.
See my earlier picture here.

Renovations

Something is happening inside the building with the lighthouse on top at Kings Cross. I poked my camera through a wee gap to see what was happening. No -one around to ask, scaffolding has gone up all around the outside. I'll keep you posted on progress.
