The view is from Riverside Lane. The tower is greatly reduced as compared with its appearance in Image, although that picture was taken only 22 days earlier; the removal of the building, though it had long been delayed, proceeded quickly. See Image and linked pictures for a sequence of images showing the progress of demolition. For the construction that later took place on the cleared site, see Image
