| | Steve Rose reports on the restoration of the Roundhouse | | Guardian Unlimited Arts |
 | | Until recently, the Roundhouse was in worse shape than most of the rock stars who made it famous. |
 | | According to the Roundhouse's chief executive, Marcus Davey, as many as 4,000 people could be using the building at once, and its new performance spaces can accommodate as many people as the National Theatre. |
 | | In its original incarnation, this undercroft was used to store ash and cinders from the steam trains, but now it is Roundhouse Studios, a suite of creative facilities such as television studios, recording studios, edit suites and rehearsal spaces, exclusively for the use of 13- to 25-year-olds. |
