Art Deco sculpture on the New Adelphi Building. Monday 31st Jan, 1.30pm.


Adelphi is a district of London, in between the Strand and the river. I never knew this. It is named after the Adelphi Buildings, a block of 24 unified neoclassical terrace houses. They were demolished in the 1930s, and replaced with the huge art deco New Adelphi Building.

The reason I went her was that you can see it from a meeting room window in my building and I always used to look out and wonder where the street was. So today I went and found it. It's kind of hidden away, and it's a great little secret maze of streets.
