Lucky for me, I had a spare backlight and after an evening of searching out how to reconnect the tiny ribbon cable, the camera is back up and running. Whew.
Inside the future home of the New Museum of London
New Museum of London, West Smithfield
Sir Horace Jones (1883) and T P Bennett and Son (1963) New Museum of London scheme: Stanton Williams Architects Asif Khan Julian and Harrap Architects
In 2016, Stanton Williams and Asif Khan, working together with conservation architect Julian Harrap and landscape design consultants J&L Gibbons, were the winners of an international competition to find an architect to design the new Museum of London. The team was selected for their “innovative thinking, sensitivity to the heritage of the existing market buildings and understanding of practicalities of creating a great museum experience”.
The vision for the new Museum of London balances a crisp and contemporary design with a strong recognition of the physicality and power of the existing spaces of the West Smithfield site. The early stage concept includes a new lifted landmark dome which would create a beautiful light-filled entrance to the museum; innovative spiral escalators will transport visitors down to the exhibition galleries in a vast excavated underground chamber; flexible spaces are included that can serve as a new meeting place for London; and a centre for events and debate and a new sunken garden and green spaces to provide pockets of tranquillity.
Stanton Williams and Asif Khan are now working closely with the team at the Museum of London and the museum’s stakeholders including the GLA, City of London Corporation and the local Smithfield community to develop their initial concepts into a fully-formed vision for the new museum at West Smithfield.
Paul Williams, Director of Stanton Williams, said: “We are immensely excited about being given the opportunity to work with the Museum of London on this wonderfully challenging project – participating in an endeavour that will transform an area of London that has such a rich history, but sadly has been in decline for many years. Encountering the historic market spaces for the first time ... we were ‘blown away’ by the power and physicality already existing, and knew then, that whatever scheme we developed, this physicality needed to be harnessed, and not lost, and that initial observation has inspired our initial design proposals. This project will engage a broad community well beyond London.”
Asif Khan said: “To have a chance to create a new museum for London, in London, about London, at this moment in time is incredibly exciting for us. We all know the power of public spaces in changing our city and our individual lives, and this is what drives us. We want the Museum of London to be a museum where everyone belongs, and where the future of London is created.”

In 1860 the City of London obtained an Act of Parliament (The Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Market Act of 1860), allowing the construction of new buildings on the Smithfield site. Work began in 1866 on the two main sections of the market, the East and West Buildings. These buildings were built above railway lines which had newly connected London to every other part of the country, enabling meat to be delivered directly to the market.
The buildings, designed by City Architect Sir Horace Jones, were commissioned in 1866 and completed in November 1868 at a cost of £993,816. The Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Act also authorised the development of the Poultry Market which opened in 1875. This building was subsequently destroyed by a major fire in 1958 and was replaced by the current building in 1962. Further buildings were added to the market in later years, the General Market in 1883 and the Annexe Market in 1888.

This stop sign is right outside of my apartment building. I might have been glad to miss my bus; that gave me time to get the best shot.
I just replaced my molcajete which had been lost last year during my move back to Texas. It’s basically a mortar and pestle but it is hand carved from volcanic stone. Pretty much any kitchen in Mexico or the Southwestern United States has one.
A molcajete is used to grind/crush spices and vegetables. Crushing spices and such brings a taste to the game that you don’t get by running the same items through a food processor. The crushing process brings out the natural oils in things that you don’t get by running them through a blender. I spent a few hours the other day curing/seasoning my new molcajete as it was brand new. Today was the day to christen it by making a batch of jerky.
I wanted to make a batch of super hot and spicy jerky. So hot and spicy that anyone who tries a piece will rue the day that they met me. So spicy and hot that they will look down at the ground and spit whenever my name is mentioned! The kind of jerky that makes one think, “I am damned for all time!”
My beautiful friends on the jerky group are always asking for recipes, so here it goes. God save us all!:
I procured 14 pounds of meat. That weight would require about 6 cups of liquid. I went with my standard 50/50 mix. I used 3 cups of vinegar (red wine vinegar this time) and I was going to use 3 cups of Dr. Pepper for the other half. However, seeing as I was using a molcajete, I went with Mexican Coca-Cola instead.
I procured some Serrano peppers, plenty of habanero peppers, fresh garlic, and a white onion. All, I believe products of Mexico.
First, I chopped up the white onion and ground it to a paste in the molcajete. After transferring the paste to a container, I diced about 5 or 6 Serranos (keeping the seeds and all the insides. Again, ground to a paste and transferred to a container.
Then, I took about 14 habaneros, cut off the stems, diced, and ground them to a paste. Transferred.
Followed by a handful of fresh garlic roughly diced. Again, crushed to a paste.
I looked in my spice collection and found some mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Threw them into the molcajete and ground them to a slurry. The smell of grinding whole spices is amazing.
After combining the spices with the six cups of liquid, I added about 1/2 cup of brown sugar and Prague curing salt. I was going to add honey, but they had bourbon barrel aged maple syrup at the grocer’s. How could I say no to that? I used about 1/2 cup.
I performed my typical, “Taste a teaspoon” of the completed marinade. It was sweet. It was painfully hot. If eternal damnation has a flavor, this would be it!
I’ll let the meat marinade for about 18 hours and “get ‘er done!”
WARNING: Don’t wear contacts or plan on wearing contacts for a day or so after doing something insane like this! Even after washing my hands I rubbed my forehead and it started to burn. It’s a good burn.

Fortunately the church's loss was insured. The interior of the church contained interesting features including a drop-down pannel to close off a portion of the sanctuary for smaller groups, but steep entrance steps and other features made it difficult to handle caskets. When this church was built, it was popular to hold funerals at home or at graveside. Now that adjacient house lots are owned by the church, there is room for a larger redesigned church with improved functionality while perhaps still preserving the old walls and windows that gave the original building its character.
Through the gap in the defenses, you can glimpse the thriving quartier that this edifice swept aside.

Still working to fix the LCD. Which apparently I broke while replacing the backlight. I can't seem to solder worth crap so I can't get the lcd frame back on.
Demolished and replaced with offices in 1959. It was located next to Harcourt Street Station railway yards.
It was originally designed to be the centre point of a development called Wellington Square.
The site is now partially occupied by Deloitte House at 29 Earlsfort Terrace and Montague House (1999) which faces on to both Adelaide Road and Hardwicke House (2000) on Hatch Street.
Built in 1970-1974, this Modern International-style skyscraper was designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and Fazlur Rahman Khan for Sears, Roebuck and Company, replacing their earlier headquarters in Chicago’s North Lawndale neighborhood where the company had been since 1905. The Sears, Roebuck and Company headquarters remained in the building until 1994, when they moved to a new suburban office park in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. The Sears Tower stands 108 stories and 1,451 feet (442 meters) tall, becoming the tallest building in Chicago in 1972, surpassing the Aon Center, which had held the title for only a month, and surpassing the height of the Empire State Building in New York City in early 1973. The building surpassed the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City when it topped out on May 3, 1973, and was the world’s tallest building from 1973 until 1998, when the spires of the Petronas Towers were completed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The building, however, did not hold the title of the world’s tallest structure, being surpassed by several communication towers, and did not hold the designation as the tallest structure in North America, as the CN Tower in Toronto, Ontario, Canada stood 350 feet taller, but as the CN Tower does not have habitable floors for much of its height, it is not defined as a building. The building also did not hold the designation of having the world’s tallest pinnacle height until 2000, with the 1,500-foot antennas atop the older John Hancock Building to the northeast being taller than the building upon its completion, and the 1,727-foot high antenna atop One World Trade Center holding the designation for decades. The land for the building was acquired by Sears in 1970, and involved the closure of one block of Quincy Street, as well as the acquisition and demolition of two blocks full of buildings. The construction process was fraught with difficulties as bad weather and labor strikes delayed the project, with five workers dying during construction. The building also faced controversy over the tower blocking television signals being broadcast from other towers in the Chicago Loop, which was the subject of lawsuits during construction that ultimately led to the building receiving broadcast antennas atop the roof, resulting in its eventual distinctive silhouette and height of 1,729 feet from the ground to the top of the western antenna after it was extended in 2000. The building was also the first structure in the Chicago Loop to feature blinking FAA beacons to warn air traffic atop the roof, due to its height. The building was not fully leased for over a decade due to its immense size and a massive wave of office construction around the time it was built, leading to a 50% vacancy rate during the 1970s and much of the 1980s.
The building was designed as a clustered series of nine 75-foot square tubes of varying heights within the structural grid of the building’s 225-foot square footprint, with the full site being occupied by the building on the lower floors, gradually tapering as various tubes terminate on the upper floors, eventually leaving only two tubes at the top that rise from the base of the site. Two tubes, at the southeast and northwest corners, rise 50 floors, with the tubes at the southwest and northeast corners rising 66 floors, the tubes in the middle of the south, north, and east sides of the building rising 90 floors, and the central tube and the tube in the middle of the west side of the building rising the full 108 floors of the building’s overall height. This system of construction and method of design was highly economical, and has been repeated by subsequent supertall skyscrapers, including the Burj Khalifa. The exterior of the building is clad in anodized aluminum, which has been painted black, with columns evenly spaced 15 feet apart on the exterior, with bronze-tinted ribbon windows, and bands of louvers at the mechanical floors. The building was renovated in 1984, with a shopping center being added to the first four floors of the building, and a visitor center was added for the building’s skydeck observation deck. The building has two lobbies, one on the north side of the building, utilized by office tenants, and one on the south side of the building, utilized for visitors, with the entrances being located on the first floor and ground floor of the building, respectively, due to the grade change and sloping of the site from north to south. The lobbies contain artworks by Jacob Hashimoto and Olafur Eliasson, a sculpture honoring Fazlur Rahman Khan, and from 1974 until 2017, the building’s lobby housed a notable sculpture by Alexander Calder, which was removed during the building’s renovations. The 103rd floor of the building houses the skydeck observation deck, which features several boxes made entirely of glass that extend outside of the building’s exterior walls and allow visitors a 180-degree viewing experience of the city outside, outwards, above, and below their feet, with the glass floors of the boxes allowing visitors to see the streets below.
The building today is the third-tallest in the western hemisphere, being surpassed by the new One World Trade Center in 2014 and Central Park Tower in 2020, both in New York City, and the twenty-third tallest building in the world, with the list now being dominated by towers in Asia. However, despite its reduced status on the world stage, the building remains the tallest in Chicago. In 2009, the building’s naming rights were sold to Willis Group, which renamed the building the Willis Tower, with Sears having sold the tower in 1994 and the naming rights in 2003. The tower’s original namesake, a far cry from the robust and successful company it was a half-century ago, is now bankrupt and on the verge of going defunct. In 2017-2022, the building underwent a substantial renovation that involved the addition of a three-story podium, which wraps the base of the tower, and replacing building's original plaza and entrances. The new podium contains a food hall, two lobbies, and an atrium with a glass roof, with the exterior matching the appearance of the original building, with the exception of a dynamic sculptural facade on the exterior of the previously existing mechanical ventilation shaft along Jackson Boulevard. The building houses multiple office tenants with retail space in the base, and attracts many visitors annually who mostly visit to ascend to the skydeck and view the city from the building’s impressive height.
Buses replace trains for the 20 miles of route between Three Bridges and Brighton. This is for engineering works but are they really working on the entire 20 mile stretch of track and if not, what aren't the trains running apart from where they are actually working?
