I used to work in an office that overlooked the station where I had to catch the train home. It was very useful for knowing when the trains were running late. You could then perfectly time your arrival on the platform.

Jag, I wonder how it wd be to always carry a camera all around.. I have tried that in the past, but the strange looks of the passers by have made me nervous.. you are doing a splendid job.

There is a prison in a town near me that is a dead ringer for that building. I would go nuts if I did not have a “window office”.

your picture gives more credit to the building than i think it deserves. Been past it a few times, in the car. Looked up. Don’t think i’d be able to work in a place so near to a railway station.

David: yes - I would have thought it would be easier getting the train home if one worked above the station.

Chakra: thanks - I just ignore passers by - or I just pretend that I am an “official” - e.g. a journalist or an artist/photographer etc. Chances are very high that you will never see people who give you strange looks again - in London this would be the case anyway!

Fristz: I knew there was something odd about that building - and you’ve pointed it out: it has no windows on the side! No wonder it looks prison-like.

Jaina; I agree - the picture makes that building look a lot slicker than it actually is - but that’s the effect of the bright sunlight and the blue sky. It really does look quite surreal when you view it from the platform on a bright sunny morning.
