The Guardian’s arts blog is currently displaying my recent post about the ugliest buildings in Britain, which itself is pegged around a piece from Gridskipper, about the most hated buildings in the capital. Its all according to some of the city’s most promising architects and there’s a fine selection of bitchiness and prejudice as you might expect, but the most surprising thing is how many of them seem to loath St George Wharf, a gargantuan morass of yuppie flats beside Vauxhall Bridge.
I’ve always disliked this building. Though respect to Jez M (who took the image above right) for making such an ostentatious and overbearing blight on the river, look attractive for once.
