Originally named Vickers Tower, this architectural marvel was completed in 1963, standing as a symbol of modernity and innovation during the 1960s. The Millbank Tower, with its distinctive cylindrical shape, rises high above the Victoria and Pimlico area, its reflection shimmering on the River Thames. The cranes poised atop the structure are a testament to the engineering prowess required to bring this skyscraper to life. The London Fire Brigade Headquarters, located adjacent to the Millbank Tower, is a fitting neighbor for this iconic building.
