spylaw4 Posted September 17, 2006 Share #1 Posted September 17, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) The Royal Festival Hall (Grade I listed) is currently undergoing a £111m refurbishment. With 23 weeks to go until completion, the contractors graciously opened up the site to guided timed tours. Both these shots were taken inside the auditorium. For those that remember the inside they were taken from roughly the location of the main walkway between the front and rear stalls. Statistics - 35 miles of scaffolding tubing and 40 miles of planking! Looking rearwards ISO400 f2.0 1/13 [ATTACH]9108[/ATTACH] Looking towards the stage!

biglouis Posted September 17, 2006 Share #2 Posted September 17, 2006 Wow! Great historic record of the renovations. I think you chose your events wisely because this is a one time experience. I'm looking forward to the venue being opened again. Thanks for sharing LouisB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spylaw4 Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share #3 Posted September 17, 2006 Totally amazing experience - and I'm a civil engineer - or rather was! There is apparently a website to follow the progress and yes I for one will be attending a performance asap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
