Alex CropperJuly 27, 2013If you're coming to London, check this place out. A great example of industrial architecture. There seems to be a lot of plans for this place. It'll be soon be a cultural powerhouse.Upvoted 1 week ago- Time Out LondonFebruary 23, 2012A Grade II-listed Art Deco masterpiece, and Europe's largest brick building, Battersea Power Station is a London icon.

Dewa KindlyNovember 7, 2013A historic London landmark that will sadly be turned into a luxury enclave for super rich investors who has zero interest in London except to speculate on people's home. This makes me sad.- Phone signal, inside this massive brick building is poor. The “free” Wi-Fi available requires a load of personal details, plus compulsory sign up to their newsletter. Some shops offer their own Wi-Fi
James FergusonNovember 18, 2022Epic renovation of a power station. Great for shopping, eating and dining. Will be back to try out the sky viewing platform when it opens
Such an impressive building turned into an extraordinary social hub! A must see in London and if you have time, you should see the history of it in the foyer. Stalls and open air cinema in the summer.
Harvey SelwoodJune 11, 2018Great to go for a walk about and see the new building works, restaurants and bars popping up each week!
Joe GigioSeptember 22, 2013Opened to the public for the last viewing ahead of its transformational development, one hopes the remarkable structural feats that hold this landmark feature in its final new life in ten years time.
ManilaiceNovember 5, 2017Phase One is finished (Nov 2017), some eateries and Bars. Nice but a bit pricey Grocery store.
Flick BoomOctober 12, 2010An explosion was filmed here in the movie "The Dark Knight", which alarmed local residents who assumed a terrorist attack had occurred at the defunct station.
Chris LinnettOctober 15, 2022Outside great. Inside they had two giant turbine halls to work with and managed to make an old boring mall.
Ronald DLMarch 12, 2023Go for admiring the architecture but not for shopping or dining. You can do latter elsewhere better and at better value. Many of the shop spaces are still empty.
HISTORY UKFebruary 15, 2011Europe’s largest brick building was given classical flair by architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. The station went off-line in 1983. In 2010 plans were approved for redevelopment into offices and homes.
Gorka GuridiJuly 9, 2023Big historical building reconverted as a mall. As a mall is meh but as a venue is impressive.
James HaggerJuly 1, 2011The last batman film (with the Joaker) was filmed here. It was where 2 face got made.
Steve GarsideDecember 8, 2009Best place in the world. Period. But you can't go in. Which isn't very nice.
- A travesty of town planning. An once beautiful building surrounded by "luxury living". Incomprehensible, inexcusable.
Maha AMarch 11, 2018مكان حلو للسكن او امتلاك عقار في لندن للاجازات و الدراسه . قريب من باترسي بارك و من السنتر بشكل عام.
