West End Extra - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Published: 8 February 2008
‘Disney bobbles’
• EUSTON Tower is a beautiful, simple, building opposite Warren Street station.
It can be seen throughout Regent’s Park and catches the light wonderfully. However Camden gave permission for a wall to be built on the roof by the Ministry of Defence. This completely ruins the relationship between the roof and the sky.
In Piccadilly Westminster has permitted a Disney-with-bobbles block between the modernist Simpson’s building, now Waterstone’s and Wren’s St Anne’s Church.
Surely there are professionals with some aesthetic sensibility in the councils.
