"Oh well, there's always plan B just down the road"... and plan B is exactly what we resorted to!
After our initial target for the day didn't quite work out, we made the decision to give one of our backup locations a bash. That being a 25 story tower block...how spectacular!
Constructed in 1963, Draper House In Elephant and Castle is certainly very much of its time, with its bare concrete facade and formal architectural design. However, as of 2010, residents have since lived beneath the literal shadow of its new neighbour, The Strata Building, which was, funnily enough, our initial target
Once myself, @Conrad and my mate Adrian had glided past a surprisingly oblivious concierge, we instantly headed for the roof, and after spending little more than 10 minutes gaining access, it was ours! (temporarily). The trouble is, there's only so much that can be done photographically with a rooftop, and so after a good hour or so, we decided to head for the ground level.
Not exactly mission impossible admittedly, but nevertheless it made for an enjoyable hour of snapping our cameras.
