Manor Nursery, Angmering ... about four months after it closed down in July. It will eventually go for building land.
This is the robin that used to visit me by the till to feed on the bird seed there, without any fear ... and he would follow me around the entrance tunnel hoping for worms. Sometimes it seemed like all he wanted was some company. I can tell by the mark on his wing, and by his attitude ... each of the resident robins had some unique feature.
This is the only robin I saw up there today.

Century City is a 250 ha suburb of Cape Town, South Africa that was constructed as a mixed use development including entertainment, residential, retail and office components. Development began in 1997. Investment thus far exceeds R10 billion. It is located 10 km to the north-east of central Cape Town along the N1 motorway and is traversed by numerous waterways, wetlands and canals. Table Mountain can be seen in the background.
Just in case you didn't understand the comment on the previous pic - the brick building in that one is now on the left and we're looking north across Southwark St. towards the Bankside 4 development - now re-branded and marketed as "Neo-Bankside", a luxury housing development (designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour) with apartments selling at £1m - £6.5m.
When Tate Modern (see its tower is peeping behind the street sign on the right) opened in the year 2000 the land on which this development stands was mainly run-down commercial and industrial buildings dating from the C19 and the building on the extreme right (the Blue Fin Building) was still a 1950s office block housing the Ministry of Transport. Over the succeeding 13 years, thanks primarily to the impact of Tate Modern and the Jubilee line extension which runs nearby, the area has been transformed - but not without cost.
When planning permission was first granted for this development in 2007 the developer agreed to provide over 8,000 sq.m of affordable housing "off-site" (ie. in other parts of Southwark) and 34 affordable "shared equity" units within the development itself. Construction began in Jan. 2009 months after the Lehman Bros collapse and the takeover of HBOS (the funding bank for the development) by Lloyds. However development and marketing of the site has continued throughout the subsequent recession and the development is now in its final stages. Block E (under construction on the left) is the final phase of the development.
However in late 2011 the developer returned to Southwark Council and the GLA with a proposal to vary the terms of the original planning permission. He requested that the requirement for 34 affordable housing units on site be dropped because it was unlikely that they could make them affordable by any sensible definition of the term. Southwark Council agreed to this, with the proviso that the developer offered funding for at least the equivelent number of units to be provided off site. The sum final agreed for this was £9m, which the local authority hopes will fund the provision of 44 housing units. But up to now the developer himself has only managed to find sites to build half the amount of off site affordable housing required in the original planning permission. In addition the developer sought and was granted permission to change the use of Block E from residential to office use.
It's not surprising that local community groups now wonder if it will ever be possible for local residents doing ordinary jobs (or having no jobs at all) to afford to live in these areas in future.

Hoardings along Rodney St announce Phase 1 of the regeneration of the Heygate Estate in Southwark - re-branded as Trafalgar Place by its developers Lend Lease.
An international company of Australian origin Lend Lease developed the athletes villages for both the Sydney (2000) and the London (2012) Olympics. Their approach to the redevelopment of the Heygate Estate has not been without controversy - see:

Central Park is a major mixed-use urban renewal project in Sydney, Australia located on Broadway in the suburb of Chippendale. The first stage of the redevelopment is a tower called One Central Park designed by Jean Nouvel featuring vertical gardens by Patrick Blanc and LED art by Yann Kersalé. The design includes a cantilevered section including a heliostat to provide light to the parkland below. It is the tallest building on the site. Construction by Watpac Construction was completed in October 2013. In May 2014, the One Central Park East tower was ranked by Emporis as one of the world's best skyscrapers. In July of the same year, it was chosen as the best tall building in Asia and Australia by Chicago based Council for Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH).

A vast new housing estate brings Didcot closer to Harwell.
I expect future development will close the gap between Didcot and Harwell and Harwell will eventually become part of Greater Didcot.
It grieves me to see the wonderful Oxfordshire countryside disappearing under acres of concrete.
