Space House, One Kemble Street

• ... that One Kemble Street (pictured) was built using precast cruciform concrete blocks to avoid the use of a scaffold?
• Alt1 ... that One Kemble Street (pictured) was built for the same developer as London's Centre Point?
• Alt2 ... that Space House (tower pictured) was built during the 1960s speculative property boom in London?

• New enough, long enough. I feel that Alt2 is more interesting to a broad audience and good to go. I have added an online ref to the lead. SethWhales ^talk 14:15, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Overall:

• @Philafrenzy: As far as I can see, no QPQ has been done. Also pinging @Seth Whales: to confirm whether the original hook is also approved, because I think the modular construction of this tower is very interesting. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:10, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
  • Hi Cwmhiraeth, I just felt that Alt2 would be more interesting (and understandable) to a broad audience rather than the method of construction, which would only be of interest to a narrower group. Although I have no problems in changing it. Just noticed that the QPQ has not yet been completed.SethWhales ^talk 17:39, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

• QPQ done. I have to agree that the first hook is the most interesting in my view. I have included a close up of a block in the article. The word cruciform is in itself quite interesting. Alt2 is a bit banal. Philafrenzy (talk) 09:48, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
