    One of BA's best, IMHO. Hard to see in the first photo, but I love the little balconies that protrude like the prow of a ship. If I remember correctly, we sort of stumbled on this one?

    Yes great building. I had it on my list but not sure if I'd tracked down the actual address before we came across it.
