Flats above the Mary Seacole Centre

A recent medium-rise development, above the Mary Seacole Centre on the corner of Clapham High Street and St Luke's Avenue, opened in 2012. The whole site is called Clapham One, "a public private partnership scheme between the London Borough of Lambeth, Cathedral Group Plc and United House Limited ... a new 20,000 sq ft health centre, library, leisure centre and 199 new homes" (from the architects' website). The building in the right foreground looks uninteresting and abandoned; in fact (according to another contributor to this site) it was the entrance to a WW2 deep level air raid shelter Image
