The scaffolding next door.
There is going to be double story extension and we'll have even more bricks to look at! So I'll be planting some trees to soften the view.
The base of Shakespeare Tower is surrounded by scaffolding, protecting passers-by below, while abseilers investigate reports of bits falling off the building.
The Safari (previously Dominian) cinema is a fantastic liswted building that fell on harder days. Laterly split in two with half being a evangelical church with a rather unpleasant history. It is now being renovated and a fantastic artodeco frontage restored although the body of the cinema will be lost forever. The scaffolding is a wonderful site and worth seeing on its own.
The construction workers from Mammoth Ere
The construction workers from Mammoth Erection, were once more building the scaffolding at the corner of Church and Wellesley.
We never got so tired of seeing scaffolding everywhere. Big Ben, Palace of Westminster, St. Margaret's Church, Westminster Abbey, Windsor Castle, York Minster, Stirling Castle, Edinburgh Castle, random buildings around town. I know where my next stock investments will go.
i think this building is a theatre or auditorium next to the biblioteca alexandrina. i loved the way the scaffolding was stacked up the side of this slanted wall.
This is great. They build skyscrapers with bamboo scaffolding! Apparently its tensile strength is greater than that of steel. I prefer to believe its because human life isn't worth as much in Hong Kong.
By the way, I did some fact-checking on this issue by watching Rush Hour 2 again (well, I watch it every Thursday, what with it being my favorite movie and all). Remember the fight scene on the scaffolding outside the skyscraper? (Silly question, of course you do...) Well, it was on bamboo scaffolding. So I guess that means all the bamboo scaffolding I saw in Hong Kong WAS real.
This stuff was all over the place, even asissting the erection (yes, tee hee, get over it) of sky scrapers.
Now that I've seen the metal scaffolding all over the Parthenon I've decided that China and Greece need a cultural exchange so that the Parthenon can be held up with more picturesque bamboo supports instead.
A man wearing headphones walks under some Bank Street scaffolding near Gladstone Avenue. This was supposed to have a shallower depth-of-field but I think it still works OK.
Elephant Rd, Elephant and Castle.
A stag made from scaffolding sits in a wasteland that was going to be a car showroom.
Trajan's column, looking up through the scaffolding that covers its base. this is really close to the column, maybe only 10 meters from the door to the stairway.
