Tate Modern

I remember the Tate Modern Museum when it was the derelict South Bank power station and I watched fascinated as it was redeveloped to become one of the best exhibition spaces in Britain.

The old central turbine hall is just a wonderful, huge open space and the chimney at the front of the building is a great minimalist landmark.

By the way, regular viewers of my blog will know I don't much like pigeons (flying rats). At the moment, the Tate Modern is a pigeon-free zone; a pair of peregrine falcons have nested at the top of the chimney and the pigeons that stray too close don't last very long!
