Woodford Court, Residential tower in Shepherd's Bush, England.
Woodford Court is a residential high-rise in Shepherd's Bush with 20 stories and a height of around 56 meters (184 feet). The structure is built from steel and concrete and has shaped the area for decades.
The building was completed in 1974 as a public housing project, marking an important step in modernizing London's housing supply. This period saw a wave of similar high-rises built across the city.
The building reflects the mixed neighborhood of Shepherd's Bush, where people from different backgrounds live together. The area has become a vibrant part of London through its diverse residents.
The building sits near Shepherd's Bush Green and is easily accessible by public transport. Shopping, dining, and daily services can all be found within walking distance in the surrounding area.
The building gained attention in 2004 when a resident was involved in a failed attempt to steal gold from Heathrow Airport. This incident remains one of the most talked-about events connected to this residential tower.
