New London Architecture

There have been quite a few exhibitions about London Architecture lately, including one last year in that odd underground space in Broadgate. The latest is the whopping great plastic model at New London Architecture. It's a 1:1500-scale version of (roughly) Zones 1 and 2, which turns out to be an I-can-see-my-house-from-here level of detail. The model is permanent, and there's currently also a temporary exhibition about London megaprojects. Did you know that they're starting work on Battersea power station (again!) this autumn?

Free, fascinating, and in the middle of town. What more could you want if you've an hour or two to kill?

Gosh, what a funny plan for Lots Road. The poor powerstation looks dwarfed
