I work in a 18 storey building. There is a similar building next door ,however that is due for demolition. In it's place is to be a new snazzy, all glazed and chromey , with cafes, shops 'n' stuff on the ground floor and office accommodation.
The works commenced at the end of last week ( due to be completed in time for the Olympics of course
) . I sit by the window at mid level of the building and longside the side they are doing works. The distraction potential this is causing is hoooge.
After watching them put up all the scaffolding last week , I am now happily watching them demolish the back addition to the building. There is something so satisfying about seeing things destroyed
. It is not an attractive building to be fair.
However what is really distracting is suddenly seeing people when gazing out the window at eye level
Can't wait for the pile driving to start in a couple of months...
