A decade ago they built it’s own backup power plant, that has never run. I recall being told the engines weren’t matched to the generators.
Access is abysmal. I have to run across a road because there’s no pedestrian access to the building I have to attend.
About half the site is car-park and one of the most massive buildings there has been boarded up for two decades.
Basically Whipps Cross Hospital is that sprawling Minecraft “building” you’ve worked on forever and forgotten why you made half of it.
