Description
|
This former office block faces on to The Strand
across from another of Aubrey Thomas' creations,
the Royal Liver Building. It is apparently
one of the first steel-framed buildings in the
country. It is clad in grey granite on the
first floor and above that with white terracotta
made by Doultons. Since 2006 it has been a
mixed-use building with residential, commercial
and retail occupants. In 1975 it was given
a Grade II* Listed status by English Heritage.
