The news of its coplete transfomation had completely missed me, so I wasn't sure why and muttered something about it actually being quicker by car.

From the pictures it looks amazing. To me it looked like a dark and dingy place previously whereas now it's rather fascinating to look at!
The platforms are still being worked on. A couple are out of action for the time being I think - next year will be the full completed product IIRC.
