Description
|
The building known today as
the Globe Centre was originally the
Stepney Green Swimming Baths. The
Pevsner Guide describes it as having, "...
A likeable, hygenic faince facade with
central recessed bay and loggia at
first floor behind a
balastrade." Apparently,
the building was adapted in 1995 by Colwyn
Foulkes & Partner. The
adaptation involved the inclusion of the
curved glass block wall, seen below.
Today the building is home to a clinic for
HIV+ and AIDS patients.
