London Park Hotel, my god how many times has this cropped up over time. Well finally today after two years of recces, attempts and theories, its been done! Its a bit of a shame to be honest as in all fairness we were two weeks too late. In the central courtyard a huge pile of debris from each of the floor had just been thrown out the nearest window. Beds, fittings, baths, radiators, rails, everything that would have made up the hotel. Our own fault shouldnt have forgotten about it so many times.

Being in England, clear night skies are a gift rarely bestowed upon us by the gods. So when one does roll along you’d be a fool not to snap up the chance to do something. Since we’ve already visited a large majority of the “good” towers in London, we decided to go back to the Bishopsgate development. Since the last time we visited was over a year ago the building had come along way. Only one final crane remained all the main construction work had been finished and they look almost ready to decorate.

Another of Londons now demolished theatres. This one replaced by ”Affordable Flats”, criminal.

A complete gem of a site. Located in London, near Kings Cross station it was once a luxury hotel but eventually closed due to a lack of patronage, retaining some use as offices for Network Rail. St Pancras boasts two iconic towers including a stunning clock-tower and still contained its original rail terminal within its basement. It is currently being renovated to be turned back into a hotel, another part of the St Pancras Eurostar scheme.

The Hartlepool Able shipyard also known as the Hartlepool “Ghost Ships”. Was the last stop on the “Ahoy thar” road trip at the beginning of 07. Getting on the ships was as frustrating as it was rewarding. We spent almost three hours trying to get on the hulking giants, even resorting to taking a motorboat around the dock to see if there was anyway up on the sea side.
