The juxtaposition between historical & modern is one of the best things about London. Thanks for taking us with you to this super cool building.
hello Hannah .lots of Love from Malaysia 🌹 Battersea is special to our hearts, interesting facts, it was rebuild funded by EPF employees provident fund , sime Darby property and UK corporation ... Basically our retirement funds invested here and the dividend will be shared by the end of the year . Battersea is our pride and we hope londoners will enjoy the place ❤️
SP Setia tak mention ke
sime derby?? no its KWSP and PNB
Perlu ke explain semua ni wtf 😂
You're right to question whether you'd want to live there. The worst part is you'd have people like Eddie Izzard as a neighbour. Can you imagine him ha ing late night loud parties while you have to get some sleep, if you complained he'd accuse you of being homophones. Such a pretentious has been
As a Malaysian im proud that this is developed by Malaysian conglomerates. All the best to the city of London and their newest landmark.
Hopefully returns are worthy of the efforts being put in.. cheers from penang!!
kalau dak rakyat tanggung.. :(
@@benjibyte8612 Ha, ha. Ye betul tu!
THANK YOU MALAYSIA 🇲🇾
Me too 🇲🇾
@@Younghead Or even an old power station with shops inside ?
Hello London from Malaysia..I've been London twice 2016/2018 & I really² love it..I ever saw this abandoned power station but never expect Malaysia will buy & develope this place become a stunning place like now.🤗🤩
I absolutely cannot wait to see what they've done on the inside! Such an icon! You and the building Hannah, naturally. 😂🇬🇧👌
Great to see such an iconic structure saved not scrapped! Really interesting thanks Hannah. 😊 🇦🇺 🇦🇺🇦🇺♥️
I am glad you covered Battersea Power Station, this has given me plenty to prep and plan when I venture there with my mum. It looks like a lovely and relaxed area considering the number of visitors present. I may try visiting during the week, hopefully it won't be too crowded. Thank you for the tour and information!
I like the way they’ve left some history in the building, mixing old and new, exposed bricks and some architecture of the old steel variety.
Wow....this was very impressive indeed. Amazing how they have managed to integrate the new with the old so well. Thank you for taking us along Hannah. I found it very interesting and appreciate the fact that you navigated your way so well and even skipped lunch just for us! Busy busy busy...but understandable. The 109 lift experience also looks very cool. Sending you warm regards from South Africa. PS: I liked that scarf!!!
I love these vlogs because it feels like we just get to hang out on a Saturday morning!
I get that, it's like she's saying "come on over and lets hang out"
Are you on the other side of the world?
Great vlog Hannah! It is great to see some of these old buildings getting re-purposed instead of getting torn down. You'll have to go back in a few months when all the stores and restaurants are open and show us what it is like. Hope you are doing well!
Hi Hannah! Omg I remember that run down power station! My husband and I visited London several times between 2005 -2012 & always stayed in the Pimlico area. I recall seeing that station and thinking how very sad it looked. Well now it's just amazing & I can't wait to see it in person one day! So glad they transformed it into something useful and more beautiful than what it was. I'm sure through the years both the shopping center and surrounding areas will only continue to get better. 😉 Thanks for showing & taking us along. Much love from Fort Worth, Texas! 😊🌻🍁
Visited this place in Oct. the Malaysia Square just at the back of Battersea is stunning. More shops at the back. I quite enjoyed the walk frm battersea tube station. As a tourist Malaysian i do feel they injected some malaysian contemporary condo building feel.
I was one of the many who suggested a visit. And wow they have done it up so well keeping so many of the original features even cranes etc. As a Londoner - no longer live there - I use to pass the power station on the train everyday to London Victoria. Such an iconic building certainly for us, have to visit but am I brave enough to go up elevator 109!
That's why Smart is your last name.
Looks amazing Hannah, too think Battersea was always known as the poor man's Chelsea.
what a turn around.
I remember over 20 years ago having a boot sale in the old wasteland next to the Power Station and people were doing Bungee jumps.
What's £9 Billion amongst friends.
Those flat prices were off the Charts.
I can never understand how in today's climate people can afford to buy them.
Chelsea bridge looked in a shocking state,
I am surprised they have let it hetnthis bad.
Look forward to your next stream
Have a nice weekend Hannah and a good week.
👍🏻👍🏻😁
Hannah, this was awesome 👏. I love how you take time looking at the architecture and little thing’s. Really enjoyed watching this video. 😊💕👍
FANTASTIC vlog Hannah! I love the fact that the building was preserved & repurposed! In Canada they would have knocked it down and built a condo tower. Thanks for this great vlog!
Right Hilda in Canada we know everything down these days and build 50 storey towers on every corner. At least London preserves buildings and has open grassy and other spaces for people to enjoy and people en;joy themselves. Unlike Canada.
You're a really awesome tour guide! You're so interesting to listen to and explain things in really nice detail. Love the quality of your videos!
Hi Hannah, you did a fabulous job showing us this iconic place! I've heard so much about Battersea Station, so I really appreciate you taking us along. Glad you managed to buy a couple of things for yourself, love the scarf, also, I loved it when you said "to be kind" some of the staff are probably new, it's always a good reminder! Really enjoyed going along with you, its always lovely! Thank you so much for sharing, take really good care of yourself, stay well! Lots of love Kathy x 💕
Hi Hannah, thanks for the video. I was not aware of this restoration project. I love it when they repurpose old buildings. They are such a large part of our architectural history. I see that happening where I live the last few years and I'm thankful. Have a great weekend! Cheers, John
Great video thanks. Yep. Over 40 years. I was there in 1987 on my second tunnelling project in London navigating a tunnel machine going from just next to the power station to Park Lane, then Regents Park. Aged 22 then! Before you were born! The recent Tideway project was tunnelled from here as well as the Northern Line Extension. Part of what held the project up was getting planning permission for the Northern Line Extension providing a transport link.
I also worked on a gas supply tunnel from Chelsea under the River Thames which was to supply the flats etc. So I keep being drawn back!
Anyway in 1987, before health & safety was as important as it is now- they let us have a look round inside after it was decommissioned. Incredible structure. I think it was a japanese consortium then who were interested in developing the area but the property crash of the late 80's and 3 million unemployed put paid to that!
Lots of stories I could tell about the works then but too much to put here. The old cranes on the quayside that unloaded the coal will return! Being refurbished.
After we finished the tunnel I was on in 1990 -it was off to the Channel Tunnel design team!
Proud to be a malaysian now because the malaysian company glc has redeveloped this battersea power station into a new level iconic place of london. Congratulations👏👏👏🎉🎉👏👍👍😀😀
When you said “1987, the year I was born,” I instantly thought I’m old! I was 15 in 1987😂! I love your videos. I have been all over London via your vlogs, and have never actually been there. So when I do get to come across the pond, I will know where to go…straight to Harrod’s!❤
i'm 35 y/o now.. 🤣
I love it. What a great way to recycle a iconic building.
I cycled as a kid in the 60s, many times around that area. What a transformation. The big thing I remember was the smell of coal and generally a run down area. Who would believe the prices of apartments especially next to railway lines. Oh I forgot they don’t run very often these days..,,!!
The structural features and the history of the building is so interesting. Hopped off to read about its history . The shops seems run of the mill $$$. Building and renovation is fantastic. That scarf will match your camel colored coat perfectly.
Great content as usual Hannah!👌👍 It's amazing how they've transformed that iconic building.
Bonjour Hanna, merci de nous faire découvrir Londres à travers tes vidéos, ce centre commercial paraît gigantesque. C'est incroyable cette transformation architectural de cette ancienne centrale électrique. Bonjour de la France et bonne journée à toi
So cool!! We had a power station shopping center in Baltimore. Yours looks so much nicer. Thank you for sharing the history too. I know I keep saying it but I love your videos. Thank you. 😃
That's really cool, I love industrial renovations. Definitely putting it on my list for when I return to London one day! It's great to see the whole area has been cleaned up and can be used now.
I'm 50, I grew up in Battersea, visited the power station just after it was decommissioned , on a school trip...
I then did my GCSE Geography project ( first year of GCSE examinations) on the planned conversion of the power station to housing....so to say it took a while is an understatement. And yes Battersea was rough in the 70's and 80's , bits of it still are.
Love this Vlog. Thanks so much for taking us along. I enjoy how much you love and embrace your country’s history.
Loved the tour around Battersea Power Station.
It’s certainly revitalised the area.
Your enthusiasm shines through your vlogs.
Looks amazing with an industrial feel and a great way to show the history. Definitely want to visit but maybe when it's less busy! I could sense your hanger 😅 I hope you got some food x
This ia an amazing re-development. Love how the old & new have been integrated.Thanks for taking us there.
Another brilliant video, Hannah! Of course the interior reminds you of the Tate Modern, which was formerly the Bankside Power Station. Also received coal by barge on the river. We went there on a school visit in the 60's, remember being completely fascinated at the time.
Oh wow that’s a great school trip!
Hi Hannah, I remember when I lived in London for a summer in the 90s, we took a boat trip to Greenwich and passed by Battersea...it was SO depressing!! Now look at it!! Amazing!! Thanks for showcasing this, so nice to see cities doing well 💖
You still can do this boat trip but now renamed as Uber boats that operate it😉
Malaysians sure know how to design a mall. Excellent work.
Which Malaysian architecture firm did they use?
the redevelopment was not done by Malaysian company but i get you point, malaysians know how shopping mall should look like bcoz we have tons of them here in malaysia
Is Battersea OS now owned by Malaysia?
@@teduzzzthey all look the same and only a few are successful and well managed
@@onelife7247 yes.100% owned by KWSP and PNB
It's a brilliant idea to change old power plant into a mall, and Thank you for you lovely tour there. it was fun
What a great vlog, such a fun place to see! Thanks, as always, for taking us along! Keep up the great work, it’s appreciated! Cheers!
This looks like so much fun! We have a power station here in Boston that is being turned into condos. So enjoy your videos!
Hello Hannah! American here…marathoning your vids…you & your sis…so cute at the teas! I’m a big fan of all things British….I watch a LOT of British produced shows…mostly the older ones, bc that’s what we get on YT. I also watch a lot of art & creative vids (I’m an artist) & travel/sightseeing vids. I’ve lately gotten into watching the Sherlock Holmes TV series w/Jeremy Brett that was produced for 10 years from 1984 - 1994 (and shown during that time on PBS in the US.) He WAS, no doubt, the quintessential Sherlock. Love Mr. Cumberbatch, but I understand that Brett lived & breathed his character, and it shows. I also love the old black & white SH movies with Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce 👍. What caught my eye here was that you are in Battersea and that reminds me of the“Landscape Artist of the Year” show shot at The Battersea Arts Centre and produced by Sky Arts network (they also produce “Landscape Artist of the Year, that’s probably my fave bc they go to some of the most iconic and beautiful locations in the UK for the painters to paint. Great show if you’re into art. Enjoying the heck out of your vlogs. You’re fun and energetic. I came to London over 20 years ago (in 2000) with the church choir I was in at the time. Our director arranged for us to sing at some of your glorious historic cathedrals (Canterbury is the only name I recall,) It was an incredible experience 🤩and then we had time to take in some of the big sites/museums and we also did a tour of Leeds Castle…fantastic! Maybe one of these days I’ll get back there…I hope so! 😄
My husband and I went there on Friday afternoon/evening (4th November). There are still lots of places yet to open. It wasn't anywhere as busy. Very beautiful plus they are building an ice rink at the moment! We ate at Paris Baguette, it was lovely food and excellent service, can highly recommend. We will revisit again in the spring, hopefully there will be more places open. Excellent place to visit though.
👍👍👍
Battersea mall is wonderful !! Well done beautiful video!!😊
Loved this.. fantastic they have finally finished. Looking forward to when you go up the lift.. lets hope the weather is good.
Such an uplifting fun vlog! Thanks Hannah
Wow what a superb job they have done. I am going to London for the weekend with my daughter and will definitely go to see this after your video Hannah. Thanks for posting it , was so impressed I had to subscribe.
Wow that was busy, well done for taking us along. Really enjoyed seeing it.
Really appreciate it when you take us to places you've never been before. It looks like there's so much to do.
How wonderful, what a beautiful space, such an iconic place. I would definitely put on my list to visit. Thank you. Xx
Thanks for sharing this reinvention of an iconic London building. Will definitely head there next time I'm in London.
Wow, what an absolutely amazing development of Battersea Power Station. Thanks Hannah for the tour, your vlogs are the best!! ❤
A blessed good day Ms Hannah Wowww what's. A beautiful 😍 place and New Mall Batterstea Power Station, in London, thank u so much for your wonderful walk around tour video Godbless u from your New solid fan supporter Viewer from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Marvin 👍👍👏👏🙏🙏♥️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍
This was a fun experience to see with you Hannah....unique and well preserved building, sooooo cool.
Loved seeing this. I lived there in 77-78 and always thought that was a scary building but even though I still feel like that I’ll check it out next time I go. In the USA we’ve lost a lot of malls due to Amazon but I hear a lot of people not happy with them now and my local mall was dying but when I go there I see more and more people going back. I always give my business to my local malls because I don’t want them to go away. Thank you for showing places to see in London, I think you do a great job.
This is the first time i have come across Hannah and her vlogs. I found this video very enjoyable, a beautiful iconic building. I did not realize the BPS was finished, it is a lovely mall but too big, lots of walking around 😅
Thanks for sharing the new luxury shopping centre . Hope to pay a visit 👍
You’re looking stunning Hannah as always beautiful & gorgeous 🥰 another enjoyable video and great commentary 👌
Have been waiting to see this complete for so many years. Thanks a lot for the tour. I have no idea why CZcams suggested your channel the first time to me but they clearly know me better than I know myself 😁
Amazing Hannah!I loved it! And what a gorgeous and huge shopping center! I like very much these shopping centers architecture made of bricks. It has been a "trend" to transform old factories and huge depots into shopping centers! Here in my city Rio de Janeiro, where I live in, we have at least two shoppings called Nova America and Bangu Shopping which were old factories. I wish you a beutiful friday!
😀😀😀
Love this 💗combination of old and new it's amazing 👏 thanks for the tour hannah have a lovely weekend 💕
I remember going to see a Cirque du Soleil show at Battersea Power station over 20 years ago. You had to pass through a wasteland to get to the huge tent they had erected for the show. There was talk at the time of Cirque du Soleil establishing a permanent base at the power station. Looks as if they've lost their chance!
Thanks for taking us along Hannah. What an amazing building. I would love one of those apartments…… I will continue to dream 😂
Wow! Thank you, Hannah, for the tour. Really interesting. Way back in 2008 we came as part of a small group to do some photography of the derelict site...and the only other sign of life we saw was a little fox. It's fascinating to see it now. Thanks for the tips too.
Wow! It looks amazing. I used to go past it everyday on the train to work. I don't think I'd want a flat there though, with all the tourists and shoppers getting in the way..
I bet it will look amazing decorated for Christmas.
Hey Ms Ricketts, what a great video. This is new to me. What a great place, and not a better person to take a look. Very enjoyable, Regards from Spain, Reni 🍷🍷
Thought this was fascinating. I had no idea this was being refurbished - amazing the way the old is integrated with the new. We used to come up to Battersea Fun Fair when I was growing up, (from Kent) and remember seeing the power station. I agree, it will be fascinating to see how many of these high end stores are still in business a year from now. Can't believe the number of people that were there. Thank you so much for taking us along!
Oh my gosh, so lovely! It would be amazing to go back and see all the holiday decorations! Thanks, Hannah :)
Thank you, Hannah! Honestly love Fridays because your new vlog drops. Makes me feel like I'm in my favorite city in the world. Really appreciate all the effort you put into these uploads.
Wow! What a great transformation of this Art Deco building, will definitely have to visit. Nice to hear a little clip of The Final Countdown done by the performers 🙂 just by coincidence Europe the band filmed their music video for their song "Open Your Heart" in Battersea Power Station. Thanks again for the tour Hannah.👍
It's amazing, i'm looking forward to visit this place next time I'll go to London. The architecture inside reminds me of a library, modern one.
Great video Hannah! Thanks so much for taking us the new Battersea. My experience with it was only through the 77 album cover, Pink Floyd's Animals. That scarf was really similar to the one (at least the colors) you were trying on at the Mango in last week's video. So glad you got it. BTW... the activity that guy was doing with the metal detecting (1:39) on the Thames is called Mudlarking. I seen it on a "Joolz Guide" video (another youtuber). And its quite amazing what they find... coins from Roman times up to present day, bit of pottery, debris from the industry that used to line the Thames during the 1700 and 1800s, as well as little bits and bobs (old combs, laundry pins, etc etc). 'Til next time!
Amazing Vlog!! So impressed with the makeover of Battersea Power Station ✨. Thanks for taking us all along for the shopping 🛍 trip 💜. Have a wonderful weekend 🍂
A great vlog. I like the modern elements with the old brick work. I’ll definitely add to my ever growing list of places to see. Hoping to get back to London in the new year.
This is SO great to see now few months later, def gonna see whilst visiting Londen, Thanks for the great explanation . Wow. 🌷
We are waiting to see the complete shopping mall . Hopefully it will be very soon .
Loved seeing the tour of the mall -- we have a huge mall here
Hannah can’t wait for you to review the stores…Fun vlogs as always ❤️👍
Hi Hannah,
Great video nicely capturing the atmosphere in the new Battersea Power Station shopping mall. I haven’t been there since it was opened, but I think a walk from Sloane Square would be quite a pleasant approach to the area. I’m not so keen on the approach from Vauxhall, but to link it with Chelsea in my minds eye works for me. Of course when it was a grotty old power station, Chelsea didn’t want to be associated with it, but now things are different.
It’s amazing to think of all that coal being delivered every hour, every day of the week from the coal mines in the northeast and Wales. It did have a magic then, thinking of all the power it was sending across London.
😊👋
Good evening Hannah for the vlog of the new shopping centre at Battersea it is looks fabulous, it shows with imagination and lots what can be achieved. I remember this years as a building decaying I never thought it would be such a desireable area (similar to Canary Wharf you must visit one day) 😊😊 have a superb weekend
Thank you for providing this great video! Love your energy!!
Thank you Hannah - todays walk was quite exciting and very, very interesting. I look forward to seeing more at a later date
It is not crazy,.. It is interesting and good collaboration with Art design! …Just The best one, calming and relaxing by shopping and nice cafe shops, patisseries !
OMG I loved this, thanks so much Hannah! I remember it closing and there being a danger that it might be demolished at some point, I've always loved the building. Can't wait to visit, although tbh I'm not particularly interested in the shops its the architecture that I love and I'd love to visit the control room. It has been a very long wait lol.
An interesting view of an iconic London building
SOOOOO cool!! Thank you so much for the tour. I saw that this was opening and it looked interesting. I definitely want to go check it out next visit to London. 👍
Sentuhan malaysia, otomatis mall jd mega 😁
Hannah!! Thanks for sharing this Awesome Experience, I felt like I was there!!! 🥰
very cool and majestic
I loved the Battersea Park fun fair!!! It was a real gem! Captured the 60s vibe! 😇🙏💎👌💕
Its always fun to tour with you, Hannah. It was interesting to see how they transformed the Battersea Power Station into a unique shopping mall! If you get to come to when all shops open, please pass by the new Zara there. Thank you fir this wonderful tour 😍
It does look really nice and fresh. Nice to see the old former power station now being used again.
Wow! Maybe you can go back sometime, there’s so much there and more to come so definitely another video of material. It’s so good that they kept so much original material and equipment and that there’s placards telling the history. Even though it’s across the river 😊 tourists will likely want to go; I know I would. Just to see. That scarf from Mango is lovely! Hope the rest of your day was good and you got something to eat! Thanks for sharing, Hannah!
Great. Another wealthy playground.
I love these vlogs and looking around but yes, rampant consumerism
Defo an iconic building, Pink Floyd Album cover "Animals" , didn't realise they had a shopping centre there, thought it was only converted into Luxury flats the things you learn. They certainly have done a fantastic job. Guess thats why the prices are so outrageous,
Loved the video. The architecture is gorgeous. ❤️
My Grandfather was a shift supervisor back when Battersea Power Station was operational. He often spoke of how much he loved his job and how he was responsible for keeping the power on during the blitz..
I think my grandad use to relive your grandads shift??
& look what they have done to it. Wow!! They both would not of ever thought it would of been turned into this. 😶🤪😃🤗
@@tonyburthom3516 Small world.....👍
WOW! Very impressed with the transformation of a blighted area.
Your videos are so good - It is like being on a walking tour with you (You are the guide holding a sign in the air:)). Seriously, this was amazing to see. My memory was the horrible old derelict building but great to see what they have or have not done inside is amazing, keeping so much of the old use, the space is mind blowing.
Verry art déco. Verry beautiful. Love the music.
