Adelaide House

I was walking past Adelaide House last night on the north side of London Bridge and was impressed by the American style of its façade, designed by Burnet and partners at more or less the same time that they were working on Unilever House.   When built, it was the tallest building in London (hard to believe) and it has an Egyptian style entrance, as well as sculpture by Sir William Reid Dick.   Apparently there used to be a golf course on the roof:-
