From Lancaster House, venue of famous speeches and summits, to 100 Piccadilly, the stage of an ongoing Soviet-themed reality experience, <strong><em>The Buildings of Green Park<\/em><\/strong> captures the unseen history of these well-traveled streets.<\/p>\n<p>Green Park boasts a plethora of London landmarks, including Bridgewater House and the Canada Gates. <strong><em>The Buildings of Green Park<\/em><\/strong> gives each of these sites the attention they deserve, while also celebrating a multitude of overlooked buildings: those that are passed every day without comment from the guides. Local history, old photographs, paintings and floorplans offer a tantalizing peek into the backstory behind these backdrops.
