About the CPD Talk
David will be speaking about the conservation and adaptation of the iconic Battersea Power Station, one of London’s most recognisable industrial landmarks. The talk will focus on the external repairs, as well as the re-purposing of the internal spaces to convert the industrial behemoth into a mixed-use development, incorporating retail, leisure, commercial office and residential accommodation.
