This 1960s mixed-use
building was, as the sign says, home to
the French Railway Company SNCF. At
that time it sported a sign that projected
out above the pavement on Piccadilly
spelling out the word FRANCE. This
sign, since removed, was apparently the
creation of Erno Goldfinger.
The building is clad in Portland stone and
features crittle windows. Today it is
home to the retailer Cath Kidston.
