Vigilant House and Quadrant House, Sutton

Sutton has a cluster of tall-ish office blocks in this area, most of which seem to have been designed by Robert J. Wood and Partners, and most of which currently appear to be empty and/or awaiting redevelopment. Vigilant, in the foreground on Sutton Court Road, dates from 1961-66, and with its seventeen storeys of curtain-walling is very much of its time. To the right is the pink granite Quadrant House, of 1979-80, by Brewer, Smith and Brewer. It is occupied so neither of the above statements apply.
