London recent comments:

Very expensive car park, £10 for an hour!

I have received a demand for a towed vehicle which apparently belongs to me, but my vehicle is parked on my drive in Shropshie and has not been to London in 3 years. The phone is always busy so you cannot get through

But the power station itself is no longer there, the site is to be turned into apartment buildings and shops.

Not abandoned, now is being renovated

Conscience is not worn on a banner. Saint-Just was a kind of fanatic for purity as were many of his fellow members on the Comité de Salut Public (public salvation committee). His professed lofty ideals were not conceived as principles for action but only ends for justifying very bloody means indeed ! And what ends please ? Well, the Advent of a new Man, a new Society and a new Order, no more. If he were alive today he would be called a polymorphic pervert. A true modern man and precursor to Stalin Hitler and Mao (in order of appearance), for ones. Jacobins (Saint-Just's strain of revolutionaries) even fiddled with the idea of taking young children from their families and give them a "republican" education so as to avoid their being tainted by counter-revolutionary ideas. An eminent manifestation of totalitarianism. I am a frenchman, just home from a stay in London where this quotation got my favourable attention, not knowing who the author was. It accorded with my feeling that authority must be trusting, vigilant but trusting, because it acts for the common weal and its agents consequently must be "presumed good", chosen and instructed accordingly, and infused with a sense of their responsibilities. I was somewhat sobered by this the result of my search. So when taking words out of context and history, beware ! (NB : I am a convinced republican)

I worked at Goodmans Fields from Easter 1977, while it was still under construction, until taking a management position with Nat West Group Proprty in 1991. I remained with NatWest until 1999. I was employed as part of a large in house contingent of buildings services technicians and maintained the estate and the specialist plant that was required to support the data centre. A NatWest subsidiary, Centre File, and a cash bullion centre were located at EastGate House. I regularly visited EastGate House on maintenance duties in my role as an electrical shift technician .

I lived there fow one and a half month in 1998. I'm from brazil. it was a cheap hostel, but worked for me. used to share the rooms i stayed at with people from many places: italy, australia, france, south africa. they had some troubles with some ilegal drug trafic made at the hostel, and someone i knew went to jail because of it. anyway, the memories i have of the place are fine. i had fun there

Go to East Ham District Line Station and you can still see where this loop terminated on the north side of the eastbound platform. I've used the station since the early sixties and I don't remember it not being filled in but it is easily discernible.I guess it was filled in within a few years of closure in 1958.

Stayed there 1999 when it was run as a hostel- complete shithole- witnessed naziesque security throwing a 'guests' property out of a 10th story window when he had not paid his rent... it WAS very cheap however

In 2011 the writer Iphgenia Baal chronicled the unusual happenings at this site in her book The Hardy Tree: A Story about Gang Mentality.
