Date Built
Completed 1991
Location
Block defined by Mark lane, Great Tower Street, Mincing Lane & Dunster Court
Description
A suite of 3 office buildings looking more like a cathedral than a place of business and reflecting that idea it has been described as postmodern Gothic in style. 



Pevsner says of it that, "All three blocks have rosy polished granite cladding in a bewildering variety of fins and angles, like Hanseatic Gothic done in stiff folded paper.  From a distance the dominent feature is the great steep gables with upswept ends, housing the services."  Three life-sized horse sculptures by Althea Wynne stand outside the Mincing Street entrance.
