The new building appears on Google's satellite view but not Bing's. It has a private access beside the Westow House pub, partly seen in Image A sign announces luxury two and three-bed apartments; various companies seem to have a finger in the sales pie. Centre left is an extension of one of the cafés in the Parade. Down below is an area that was the site of the turntable at the south end of Crystal Palace High Level Station, which had four tracks. It is now a car park for the rehab centre in Bowley Close. The greenery in the foreground is of Griselinia littoralis, a tender shrub from New Zealand, here luxuriating on a very sheltered site. The view is from Farquhar Road.
