The issue for me is that the bare concrete bits don't really match the limestone look of the renders. In fact it just looks like bare concrete. The finish is quite frankly shocking.

Really starting to shoot up and have an impression on Oldham Road now. Three storeys to go and the neighbouring/sister block should be rising at pace too: :cheers:

The Lancastrian. You can see the suspended sphere between the buildings at Skyline Central. The gap between the two Lancastrian buildings runs perfectly in line with this, re-establishing the grid street-scape here in New Cross :cheers:

Pedestrianised, publicly-accessible public realm area through the middle which lines up with the public realm garden through Skyline Central.

They definitely help the vista looking up Oldham Street, which in the past was like looking out to the edge of the city. The road though is horrible and, like Great Ancoats Street, need desperately taming given the ongoing transformation of the area.
It’s called Broadside because they used to make ‘Penny Broadsides’ (big, one-sheet newspapers which were cheaply available and mass produced - and which preceded multi-page newspapers) on this site
Just in case anyone was wondering...
