The King's Cross ones look brilliant, especially as part of the renovated park area around it. Link here if anyone's curious: London, England

Thing about gasometers though, is that they're usually right next to old (and sometimes still functioning) rail lines. Unfortunately this one's not, as the rail infra was ripped out.

Interestingly though, there's talk of the former rail line running parallel to Provan Road being reinstated as part of a future light-rail / metro line.

May well be that these things have a new life as apartments / offices, if ever this happens. Could fit in with a full on regeneration of the surrounding industrial estate at Provanmill, north of the M8.
