Correct - want to add any details? It’s quite an intriguing building. Edited September 22, 2019 by NigelG Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZach Posted September 22, 2019 Share #3083 Posted September 22, 2019 Do not know it in detail, just remember seeing it on my way to Govent Garden many years ago. The next one shows visitors entering the building exactly as instructed by the architect. Welcome, dear visitor!

dau Posted September 23, 2019 Share #3084 Posted September 23, 2019 This wouldn't be in the Vitra design museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany, by any chance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZach Posted September 23, 2019 Share #3085 Posted September 23, 2019 Actually not quite, but close. Not the Vitra Design Museum by Frank Gehry, but another building in the same campus... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NigelG Posted September 23, 2019 Share #3086 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) To give a bit of background on the round tower - if anyone is interested - it will be a hive of activity today after the collapse of Thomas Cook..... Part of the building (a rectangular block it is joined to with a two level bridge) houses the Civil Aviation Authority who are organising the repatriation of 150,000 travellers atm. It was designed by Siefert + Partners for Harry Hyams like it’s more famous cousin “Centrepoint”, was originally callled Space House and was similarly held empty for several years for tax reasons. It has a car park ramp spiralling down past what was originally it’s own on-site petrol station but now has an ugly blue security fence around it at street level which rather ruins things.

jdlaing Posted September 30, 2019 Share #3099 Posted September 30, 2019 Is that the Place Ville Marie in Montreal, Canada? Formerly the Royal Bank Building? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hiles Posted September 30, 2019 Share #3100 Posted September 30, 2019 Well, that was quick. Indeed it is the main building of Place Ville Marie. I believe it is still officially the Royal Bank Building. I think it is still their official head office, even though their "in practice" head office is in their Toronto building (Royal Bank Plaza). I worked in this building for a few years (although not for that Bank). Your tune Monsieur Lang. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
