The Hoover Building

[rhythmaning]

Heading west for the wassailling, we drove past the Hoover Building just after sunrise. After the light-industrial mess of the North Circular and the Western Avenue - an unattractive jumble of buildings and hoardings together with a modern sprouting of budget hotels - seeing the art deco grandeur of the Hoover Building was spirit-raising: a beautiful sight.

So I went back early on Monday morning: yet another sunrise...

One of my favourite cod-Egyptian art deco buildings in London, second only to the Carreras Building behind Mornington Crescent tube. That one has the edge because it has CATS!

I know the cats! I must get off the bus and take some pictures some time...
