World's End Estate, World's End Place
Ending up as a late entry in the roster of high-rise estates - building began in 1967 but was not completed until 1977. What also sets it apart from previous entries was the use of brown brick, an attempt to make something more homely. The architects were Eric Lyons, Cadbury-Brown, Metcalfe & Cunningham. It was built to house about 2,500 people at a density of 270 people per acre.

Part of the 1970s World's End social housing development, the brick clad towers look particularly pleasing in the low autumn afternoon sunlight.

Chelsea houseboat village
Seen from Cremorne Road, these are the most exclusive houseboats in London. Residents include artist Damien Hirst and previous residents have included Sir Laurence Olivier. Residents own the boats but must buy a five or 10-year licence to moor, which can cost up to £60,000 plus annual berthing and maintenance fees of about £160 per foot of mooring. Chelsea houseboat village was once known for its bohemian lifestyle, but many of the vessels now house wealthy professionals seeking an alternative lifestyle. It has been compared to a floating Coronation Street because of the strength of community spirit. In this view the buses in the distance are on Battersea Bridge, with the distinctive outline of Albert Bridge beyond that.
