A rather chaotic shot of the rather chaotic facade of the Frank Gehry designed Prospect Place apartments.

 

This is another upload from last weekends pre-Christmas trip. As the London Flickr Group 'Christmas Lights' Photowalk didn't start until 4pm I had a good chunk of time to fill so I started at Battersea and walked along the river to Waterloo and the Leake St tunnel.

 

If you'd be interested in joining us for a LFG photowalk in the coming year then keep an eye on the group as we'll be announcing details of the next one shortly : www.flickr.com/groups/londonflickrgroup/

From Dezeen, "Gehry designed Prospect Place with his eponymous studio Gehry Partners as part of the regeneration of the iconic Giles Gilbert Scott-designed Battersea Power Station on the banks of the River Thames.

 

Alongside the residences, it also comprises a mix of retail units and a private garden named Prospect Park.

 

According to Gehry, the goal for the development was for it to read independently while also framing and connecting to Battersea Power Station.

 

"I love London," reflected Gehry. "It has culture, history and diversity and the buildings we have created at Battersea Power Station are designed to stand artfully on their own amongst all of that, whilst also framing an internationally recognised icon."
