London : Battersea - Marco Polo House
It was originally home to British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB) television in the late 1980s, and took its name from its first owner's Marcopolo satellites. Part of the building was also used by The Observer newspaper until the newspaper moved into the offices of its parent, The Guardian. When BSB merged with Sky to form BSkyB the new company kept the lease, and in 1993 the building became home to shopping channel QVC's studios and offices.

Development, Queenstown Road
Flats being built on the site of the old Marco Polo building (Image]).
Moving around London, it's hard to believe the house-building stats are so low as it appears that not only is every single spare shred of land being built on, but existing non-residential buildings are being either demolished for, or converted into, flats. Most are unaffordable for the vast majority of Londoners.

Marco Polo House and Battersea Power Station
The south end of Marco polo House, built in 1987. Currently home to TV shopping channel QVC, the building faces possible demolition to enable the site to be redeveloped. In the background are two of the towers of Battersea Power Station, which closed in 1983. The Power Station has itself been the subject of several attempts to redevelop it, although the iconic chimneys would remain.
