Tolworth Tower

An iconic landmark building at the Kingston junction on the A3. It is hard to miss. Designed by Richard (real name Reuben) Seifert in 1960, it is a bold, reinforced concrete building. The building's structural support creates a dramatic rhythm and defines space.

He had quite an impact on the London skyline during the 60's and 70's with buildings such as Centre Point and the Natwest Tower amongst his work. When i am cheapskate
and I have a free afternoon we plan to take a visit to take photos and make sketches.
