The Multistorey carpark and flats near St Albans City station

The multi-storey car park opened in 2008. Built on the site of the former St Albans engine shed, which was demolished in 1965. The part of the building to the left of the tower containing the stairs and lifts is a block of flats which form one side of this complex. Just to the left of this is the roof of a new block of flats, just completed and not yet on the maps. The long low redbrick building in the middle of the photograph is a relay room controlling signals in the St Albans City station area from the power signal box at West Hampstead. On the Down Fast line a 319 unit approaches St Albans City station. This photo was taken from the top of the stairs at the preserved St Albans South signal box. (See Image)
