Holland Rise, Clapham Road
One of several tower blocks whose profiles are a notable landmark on Lambeth's skyline. They date from 1966-67 and were designed by Lambeth Architects' Department.
Lambeth Council's archives record that, "the block was constructed by 80 workmen using 3,720 slabs cast from 13,500 tons of concrete. Other facts noted at the time included: 2,000 light switches and points, 500 water taps, 3,500 panes of glass and 1,600 feet of cable for TV and radio. Eight identical blocks were built in Lambeth using this precast factory-built method. In May 1968 the Chairman of the GLC rejected Lambeth's application to name all industrial blocks as 'Rises' stating: 'Chairman does not like word Rise - suggests Point, Tower or House'".
