Battersea Power Station: a history of the London landmark in pictures.
Urbexer's dream, Ghost hunter's delight, London's icon, Maintenance fright. I'm just pretending. I didn't know about this place until two days ago. This is an iconic coal power station that was abandoned decades ago. It has had several restoration proposals, all of which have failed. It's often used in TV shows. It's falling apart. You would love to sneak inside and take photos. Don't be a tool by attempting to view on black. VIEW IN FULL GLORY
Before London's landmark Grade II-listed building Battersea Power Station is transformed, stunning pictures by photographer Peter Dazeley have shown what it looks like today.
Battersea Power Station: a history of the London landmark in pictures.
It was nearly a theme park, a football stadium and a Vegas-style hotel, but none of those outlandish proposals for Battersea Power Station ever got off the ground. Now, thanks to a £400m cash injection, work will finally begin on transforming London’s favourite landmark into a residential pleasure hub. Richard Godwin takes one last look inside the long-suffering icon
Most people probably recognize London's Battersea Power Station as the eerie structure featured on the cover of Pink Floyd's iconic album Animals. While the plant has been shuttered for nearly 30 years, the future of the building has been cause for for

It's a bird, it's a plane no, it's a pig, floating above London. The 30 foot by 15 foot

abandoned things, old things, photography, film-making, painting, life in post-industrial America, yadda yadda... Some original stuff, some found stuff, some reblogs. whatever strikes my fancy.
The coal-fired power station in Battersea, south-west London, was built in two stages: the first unit, completed in 1939, was overseen by the renowned architect Giles Gilbert Scott, who gave it an Art Deco interior. The plant took on its existing aspect when the second unit was built in the Fifties. It was finally decommissioned in 1983. Battersea Power Station became famous after Pink Floyd pictured it on their "Animals" album cover. Its characteristic silhouette was also picked up by other artists and filmmakers. The "cathedral of power" and land around it is now the subject of an £8 billion redevelopment which will restore the building to its former glory as well as create 3,500 new homes, offices, shops, restaurants, a theatre, a six-acre park and a £1 billion London Underground link.
this is my fav, a real moody shot of the pig against the sun and smoke
Battersea Power Station was partly designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. Scott was commissioned to design the building’s exterior following public protests that the building would be clumsy and ugly. Scott was brought in to appease public reaction, and it worked a charm with the station’s design bein
