Hammersmith Palais
I've just seen the architects visual for the student bedsits. What a lack lustre bit of rubbish. And the architect speak is priceles. Of course they will eventually, when they acknowledge it is to be an eyesore, blame it on the bland and boring brick builds either side. What that road needs is two book ends with verve, imagination and style which the architects have failed miserably to deliver. As I remember that road from 60 years ago the library had style and presence; they could have least have picked up on that.Poor old Hammersmith, and all I wanted to do was get back there after the war - luckily I didn't as they screwded the heart outof it
