Interesting little piece on tube refurbishment?

The green roof is at the new Northern Line control centre. I've seen a
photo of it.

Some interesting different images on the mapping sites:

Good work!

Hmm. I wonder if the advent of easily-accessible aerial photography will
lead to a surge in green roof use, as a way of hiding buildings from the
public? Just building your vast new warehouse somewhere out of the way
will no longer be sufficient to avoid public outcry; you'll need to make
it less obvious from the air as well.
