Lombard Wharf, Battersea
Lombard Wharf, Battersea
A tower of 134 apartments beside the Thames in Battersea.
Described as "iconic" in most publicity about it, this is how it looks, it's not my photography.
Has it got a nickname yet? As architects vie for Iconicry their efforts have picked up various unofficial names like "Shard," "Walkie Talkie," "Gherkin," etc.
This must have one. Plate stack? CD Rack (remember those)?
If it has one, I'll add it.
