One of the hottest new developments in London right now is the long awaited redevelopment of the Battersea Power Station and its surrounding environs. It’s been a long time coming, with several developers starting and then collapsing when it came time to start.

Well, now the development is happening and the developer has released its artists impressions of how the iconic power station will chance once it’s brought back into use.

It certainly looks intriguing. It will be nice to see the building brought back to use – but I wonder if this will destroy the character of the building. The coolest change will be the glass observation platform that will go all the way to the top of the chimney stacks – it’s essentially an elevator with glass walls. Pretty cool.
