Robin Hood Gardens facade

Description

"Robin Hood Gardens is a residential estate in Poplar, London designed in the late 1960s by architects Alison and Peter Smithson and completed in 1972." "The estate is undergoing 'regeneration': demolition of the western block has begun. The eastern block (which this scan is a small part of) is to be demolished in the coming months." It is a great loss for such a valuable example of British post-war architecture to be destroyed. http://www.robinhoodgardens.london/
