These photos show how a Petts Wood building has changed over the years.
Mega House, which was News Shopper HQ for 25 years, was named Farley House when it was built in 1958 and is now being transformed into flats.
A line drawing of the former office block in Crest View Drive, which was the first big office development in Petts Wood, shows how much it has changed.
Developer Langford Walker has renamed the building Grosvenor House and have begun converting it into apartments aimed at first-time buyers.
Langford Walker’s chairman Bruce Walker said: “It was a fabulous building to look to convert into flats. Normally you are looking for light to brighten up a room and here every room that faces the car park or the rear has great natural light.”
The one-bedroom apartments start from £295,000 and the two-bedrooms from £360,000.
