Hungerford House, former electricity generating station

This is a later extension to the original historic building on Victoria Embankment that was purpose-built as an electricity generating station for street lighting and was constructed in 1900-1901 by the Architects' Department of the London County Council (LCC). The building is a piece of London's industrial heritage, having been a vital part of the city's early electrification before being transformed into its current use as a bar and restaurant.

Embankment Station (Victoria Embankment Entrance)

Embankment's surface-level entrance and booking hall date to the 1914 reconstruction that unified interchanges between the District/Circle and the deep-level Bakerloo and Northern lines. Contemporary accounts praised the new station building - Sir John Betjeman called it "the most charming of all the Edwardian and neo-Georgian Renaissance stations" - which captures the late-Edwardian taste for dignified classicism: brick and stone dressings, restrained Baroque massing, and Georgian-inspired symmetry. This sits atop cut-and-cover sub-surface platforms first opened in 1870, built in step with the Victoria Embankment's great civil engineering works.
