Downpipes

My favourite extant quango, CABE, remains unconvinced by the detailed design of the mangled metal tower proposed by Anish Kapoor for the Olympics site in Stratford. It says planning permission should not be granted until some basics are sorted. The (so far undrawn) buildings at the bottom need to include machinery to drive the lifts (and presumably sell tickets to queuing hordes); the pipe work needs to sort out how the wc's on the upper platforms will part with their waste; and CABE don't like the way the glass and mirrors round the viewing platforms are detailed.

I'm still waiting for the BBC to announce they're wedging in their infamous "portable" glass studio somewhere near the top.
