Brutalist Building Concrete Glass Grade Ii Listed Landmark Office Skyscraper Centrepoint
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London on a spring day in 1967. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly Centre Point, an iconic brutalist skyscraper that stands tall at 101-103 New Oxford Street, Cambridge Circus. Designed by renowned architect Richard Seifert, this Grade II listed building showcases the boldness and grandeur of 20th-century architecture. As we gaze upon the photograph, our eyes are drawn to the sleek lines and imposing presence of Centre Point amidst a sea of cars and people going about their daily lives. The contrast between the concrete structure and the glass windows creates a striking visual impact. The scene captures a moment frozen in time - individuals rushing past with purpose, while others leisurely observe their surroundings. It's as if time has stood still within this frame; however, one can't help but wonder what stories lie behind each face captured by John Pickering's lens. Centre Point remains an enduring landmark in London's skyline even today. Its towering stature serves as a reminder of both architectural brilliance and urban development throughout history. This print from Memory Lane Prints offers us a glimpse into London's past - an era where modernity clashed harmoniously with tradition. It invites us to reflect on how cities evolve over time while preserving fragments of their rich heritage for generations to come.
