To celebrate 10,000+ views of my blog, here's a peak inside

Great to see my blog exceed 10,000 page views. Lots of people watching this building.

To celebrate, here are a couple of photos from inside the main atrium, where the lifts are housed.



You can see the lifts for the northern part of the building are already operating (notice the blue lights on each level). People whose apartments are on the southern side of this atrium will not be able to access the northern lifts for security reasons.

However, all residents will have access to the garden area on the ground floor at the northern end.

The apartments that look out onto the old facade of the flour mill are behind these lifts, down the lit corridor shown on the right.

There are two more lifts serving the southern side, but there is no way to cross the atrium other than at ground floor level.

There is another atrium in the southern building, so it should give a feeling of space and light inside, rather than being lit by artificial light, as most other apartment buildings are. 

The entrance on the left of this photo goes to the western 'podium' level and then down the stairs to the light rail station. To the right goes to another garden on the eastern side, one of three garden areas at HM for exclusive use of residents. This is how the atrium looks on the right. with the metallic panelling nearer completion.
