The brick pattern on Holywell Lane remembers a railway viaduct. citizenM Shoreditch stands on the line of that old viaduct, and a two-storey steel base copies its width and its bays, with the living-room lobby hung underneath so you look across at graffiti-covered Tube trains on the live viaduct. Two hundred and sixteen factory-built rooms opened above it in September 2016. Concrete and EllisMiller did the building. Shoreditch High Street is two minutes off.
