Carlton Mansions co-op, Coldharbour Lane, Brixton - history and news

Have you seen inside? Looks like he's creating nuclear bunker in there.
I've seen it as I've passed by and it looks like's mining for coal or something. I hope this latest non-affordable housing venture of his proves to be a total financial disaster.
 
Saw this yesterday but the crane thing was gone today. Were they checking the artwork or the building?

They were checking the condition of the wall, render and artwork. And although I have not read the detailed report yet, the condition of the render is much better than was thought / feared. I have spoken with the artist and with Lambeth and the plan is to re-paint the mural during the refurbishment, once all the structural work has been done. I can't give a detailed timescale for that at the moment, but the current ambition is to get started on the refurb this autumn.
 
Damn, I was down there a couple of hours ago and forgot to take a look. Pleased it's finally coming back into the open.
