FOR more than a decade it has stood out on the skyline of Basingstoke.

But now, Crown Heights is being transformed to give it a more subtle appearance.

The tower block, in Alencon Link, is being painted shades of grey, replacing the blue and yellow which were the original colours of the building when it opened in 2004.

Workers are currently at the site, near Basingstoke town centre, repainting the building.
