River Thames: Svitzer Thames
The tug, Svitzer Thames, sailing down the River Thames, with the Tilbury tower blocks Brisbane House, Freemantle House and Tasmania House in the background...
I'm not certain when Svitzer Thames was built: I think Svitzer acquired it in 2021, and that it was built 2018/9. It was built in Vietnam.
The tree tower blocks are examples of 1960s built 'solutions' - cheap constructions that treat people almost as automata, 'needing' a minimum space to live in so allowed a minimum space to live in, with little or no thought for amenity or community. The latter is left to the people themselves, who are better than the architects and planners. These three are a mile inland. Rant over.
