Cast iron building in London


I saw this building when I took a different route on my walk to London - it was down a side street in Kings Cross. It really reminds me of the cast-iron buildings you get in Manhattan, especially around Soho.
I have a love/hate relationship with London; I hate the pollution, the packs of tourists, Oxford Street, how rude everyone is, and I could go on and on and on. But I love how all you need to do is turn a corner and you'll be suprised. There's been a city here for hundreds and hundreds of years, and whether it's an old pub on Fleet Street, a Charles Dickens style dwelling house in East London, or a new skyscraper in the City, this place has the architecture to show it.
