Thanks everyone (Iain, Eric, Ben)

Iain: The roof is a neat trick I learned from Jeff Elliott.  It's actually
four baseplates, 2x 16x16 baseplates and 2x 8x16's.  They sit ontop of the
red brick walls.

Eric: Being compared to Battersea is really cool!  Maybe closer to the Tate
Gallery at Bankside?  (also a former power station?)

Chris has suggested the red factory produce food, so I'm going to build a
canning line and a big boiler and vat.

I intend to build a car factory or warehouse next.  My general plan is to
build alternating 2x4 and 1x4 segments which would make best use of the tub
distribution.  I found that the tub is primarily 1x4 and less, and the 1x6
and 1x8 are few and far between...
