    As the elected Councillor for Nine Elms let me say this is a true labour of love. An excellent picture by picture explanation of the re birth of this iconic building. Superb viewing. Essential viewing Cllr Mark Justin

    I work in the hospital directly across the river from the power station, it’s been amazing watching the iconic beautiful building come back to life. It was however awful to see it without its four iconic towers but thankfully back to normal now :)

    I'm originally from Battersea and remember seeing the power station working as a kid. So cool how it's been transformed now and thank you for your great video detailing the changes since construction commenced. Really hope they reinstate the coal cranes from the jetty area, as I believe this was part of the original plan?

    Hello from Dublin,
    As with the Redevelopment of Battersea...Dublin Dockland's(River Liffey) has been Transformed over the last 22 year's.
    The One thing that I miss most are the Crain's that used to Line the South Bank for unloading Ship's.
    Why they were not Treasured as a Prominent Fixture or Example of the Past Use of the Dock's bewilder's me as I used to be Enthrawled by their Shear Size and Pesence.

      Thanks, on the Cranes I was surprised they were not put back as they have been in several parts of London Docklands. I remember them very clearly when on trains going into Victoria Station

    The massive overdevelopment of the West side of the Power Station with those ghastly glass boxes is hugely regrettable.

    I thought the cranes were being reinstated when the underground stations were built... As far as Im aware they havent reappeared?

    Why did they nearly cover the outside of the great building you can hardly see it. I dont mind a few skyscrapers and and few buildings. But come on.

    I went to Battersea Park for the first time in Spring last year (very nice park, it has a pagoda and everything) and I happened upon the new Battersea Power station complex. Very impressive, but would you actually want to live there?

  • @TheGalwayFarmer
    @TheGalwayFarmer Před rokem

    From icon to eyesore. They've knocked lots of it down, inserted no end of new windows and raised the ground level around it so that the director's entrance is now in this bizarre courtyard thing. So much for it being grade ii* listed eh
