Balfron Tower Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Balfron Tower is a multi-story housing block in the Poplar district of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is situated close to, and on on the western side of the northern approach of the Blackwall Tunnel.It was designed by architect Ernö Goldfinger and, like Goldfinger's very similar but slightly more famous Trellick Tower in west London, is associated with the Brutalist style of 1960s architecture. Both Balfron and Trellick towers are often regarded as striking and/or ugly.
Balfron Tower is 24 stories high, and lifts serve all entry floors (that is every third floor); thus, to reach a flat (apartment) on the 11th, 12th or 13th floors, residents or visitors would take a lift to the 12th. The lift shaft sits in a separate tower, joined by seven (or eight) walkways.
