Water tower to dwelling
I wonder why they did that, if its not listed, they could surely have blown
it up or bulldozed it and built a more up to date building?

I passed it a few months ago and I had no idea what what happening - I saw
the scaffolding and just assumed it was a bit of maintenance.
I passed it again this week and saw the new glass so did some research.
A couple of photos from tonight.

You can view the planning permission here

or somewhere on there
and search for
16/01858/FUL
And it looks from the photos that they have cladded the concrete instead
of cleaning it. A pity really as it distracts from the main original
design feature of the building - brutalism concrete.
It also looks like level 1 has an outside door.
