A major government building used to stand here, but had been empty for years and was recently sold for development. It has now been demolished – but there was no sign of preparations for its new use when I took this picture. Perhaps any rebuilding has been delayed until the days of unrealistic high prices for flats return. The building to the left is the National Archives Image while the flats beyond are part of the Kew Riverside Park.
