swiss centre demolition has properly started. they've got rid of the cooling tower on the lower roof (the building is a three storey or so long building, with a skyscraper poking out of part of it), in bits, with their giant crane. they also used their giant crane to move a JCB onto the roof, which was today hacking at concrete. maybe the JCB will cut a big circle in the concrete and then fall inside the building?

yet they still sell tickets out of it.

Yes, it will be quite a bit lower. Not found a render of it.

Hopefully they will tune it during the downtime. (and even more hopefully we will have moved office by then).

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

Yes. It all has scaffolding over it. Can't see what they're doing up there, though.

I treasure the thought that the kitsch clanging clock will be upgraded to feature shovel-wielding irishmen and Poles with jackhammers in place of the Julie Andrews lookalike figurines.

So the net realisation for the cinema would have been £135,047,317 MILLION?
Some mistake surely?
