Yep, free swag bag with every mask.
 
Does the building out by "The Dalek" still have the living wall?
The Veolia incinerator?

Yup - the living wall is alive and well.

I wish I'd had the foresight to photograph the project as it was being built - whatever one may think of the incinerator and its political/economic problems, it was a quite stunningly beautiful and fascinating construction project. Now it looks like ... a kinda interesting bit of modern industrial architecture.

But as it was being built - with the starkness of the wooden framework being erected, hoop-by-hoop, standing against the sky. The cleanliness of the lines in the sunset. The sheer immensity. And the way the space was gradually filled in - the machinery and duct-work, then the external covering.

Breath-taking. Was a favourite route for a long while - just to ride by, and watch the behemoth take shape. [But I thought of a camera WAY too late :sad:.]
