another famous but small "tower" in berlin. i heard there were some pubs and even a discotheque in it. at the moment it is closed due to structural alteration works.
it looks like a futuristic building, but how people thought of the future in the 70s

The bold reflective surfaces of Middlesbrough College make an obvious subject! I finally had that perfect combination of blue sky/sunshine & time .....

The Poultry Market (1962-3), designed by Sir Thomas Bennett; built to replace the 1875 original (designed by Sir Horace Jones).
Poultry market. 1961-3 by T P Bennett and Son, structural engineers Ove Arup and Partners, job engineer Jack Zunz. Reinforced concrete frame, with external cladding of dark blue brick. Reinforced three-inch concrete shell paraboloid roof clad in copper, with circular rooflights, and surrounded by individual copper-clad gable roofs on all four sides. Square plan, with double-height market hall in centre flanked to north and south by delivery bays; first floor gallery with offices on all four sides; basement cold storage and public house (the Cock Tavern).
The exterior is a remarkable piece of `pop architecture', that is absolutely `of its time'. Nine-bay facades to north and south with hexagonal lozenge lights, resembling those found in pavements lighting basements, with full glazing in metal frames to first floor. Clerestorey glazing at sides under the individual roofs. Clerestory glazing on all sides under projecting copper-clad shell. The market is entered under the canopies to either end. There are no formal doors to the market itself. These are concrete frames with infill glazing; that to east forms a physical link with the listed meat market of 1866-7 by Horace Jones. Good, consistent 1960s' style lettering to doorways, such as to the Cock Tavern in the basement. Commemorative plaques dated 1962 on east wall.
