I used to take a ska band into the Waterman's for lunch time every Sunday called Abandance. Went well, became a point of destination for many. Huge bar/food sales, happy crowds, so much so that the managenent, true to the Waterman;s 'manage to fail and flog the site to a developer we know' policy, stopped it, without reason given. What did they do with the beautifull room with panoramic views of the Palace, the best view in the borough. believe me,(The only way to see it would be to stand on the loo and look out of the upstairs toilet window. Don't do this it might be unsafe and cause damage). A perfect venue for a lounge or coffee bar? Why.... they've covered the windows with cardboard and turned it into a white box, art galery that could be housed anywhere, like a basement or one of the back rooms.
