A ‘Powerful’ Regeneration of the Battersea Power Station

The Battersea Power Station, one of London’s iconic “superstations” and the largest brick building in Europe, was, at its peak, a structure hailed for its distinct design and its ability to provide enough energy to power a resurgent London over the course of five decades. But since closing down in 1983, the building has been largely unused. Then, in 2012, a trio of Malaysian investors—SP Setia Berhad, Sime Darby Property and the Employees Provident Fund—purchased the property for £400 million, pledging to transform the Battersea Power Station not just into a sprawling multi-purpose destination, but into London’s hot new neighborhood.
