Pink Floyd The Wall Studio Being Turned Into Luxury Apartments

(Prog) The London studio where Pink Floyd recorded their classic 1979 album The Wall will be turned into luxury apartments. The Victorian warehouse and listed church hall that housed the Britannia Row studio in the Canonbury district of Islington will be transformed into eight luxury flats after the Planning Committee at Islington Council agreed the proposals Tuesday night (June 28).

Islington Council planning chiefs fought to ensure that at least part of the building will be retained for office and studio space. A spokesman for the council tells TeamRock: "I can confirm that the proposals were agreed last night at a meeting of the Planning Committee."

Pink Floyd recorded the video for their track Another Brick In The Wall with pupils from the nearby Islington Green School. The Wall producer Nick Griffiths recruited the pupils and their music teacher for the iconic promo. Read more here.
