Steel and Storm Over Bishopsgate

We’d come out of the train station at Liverpool Street earlier in the morning but when I walked past here, I stopped dead on Bishopsgate, tilted the camera straight up, and watched three towers race each other into a sky that looked like it was about to pick a fight. The central building’s white steel exoskeleton catches what little light the clouds allow through, while its darker neighbours absorb everything else. Glass, steel, and corporate ambition stacked floor after floor.

The bright yellow Liverpool Street sign is almost the only colour in the scene. What does that say about office work in the modern world?

TIL that the distinctive diagonal-braced tower at the centre of this shot is 100 Bishopsgate, which at 172 metres tall, is one of the City of London’s tallest buildings. Bet there’s a nice view from the top floor!

The Clash Meets Coffee Culture

I never imagined I’d see a T-shirt that features The Clash and The Supremes in one sentence, yet here we are in Spitalfields Market in London.

Good coffee at Mamma’s Goodies too!

Not sure if I've ever shared this video before, but if nothing else it is worth sharing again.

If you've ever been into London Liverpool Street it's a pretty airy and light place [well apart from the high numbered platforms on the east side] and is one of the nicer terminal stations in the capital. Next door to the west was Broad Street which was being run down by British Rail at the time of filming - it shut in 1986.

The Broad Street side is now the Broadgate office development: British Rail obviously seeing the potential of flogging the site off as more office space was needed in London, especially after the Big Bang deregulation of financial markets in 1986.

Liverpool Street was spruced up and eventually completed by 1991.

Here's a walkaround of Liverpool and Broad Street stations from 1985: https://youtu.be/TrJnbOQ9_Us?si=Nm9ADJB12t2aqKmY #London #LiverpoolStreet #Railway
