Blackfriars Station

Blackfriars Station’s work has started on what will be the first station to straddle the river Thames. The £350m is part of the £5.5 bn  Thameslink Programme to ease rail congestion and to cope with a predicted growth in commuters.

Two architects are involved in the project: Jacobs designing the building and Tony Gee & Partners designing the bridge

    Now this i DO find impressive!

    They have some realistic CGIs, and they look good too! These buildings could actually be built and be useable! :-)

    As long as The Blackfriar Pub (Nicholsons) is not effected I am all FOR this project!

    Some impressive photography too, the next time BOIDUS needs some photgraphic material like this drop me a line, this is MY style :-)

    I kinda like the designs too. I think its brave to span the Thames though. Its using all the space they can get.
