This print showcases the magnificent No. 1 London Bridge, a remarkable architectural gem nestled in the heart of Southwark, Greater London. Designed by Johns Bonnington Partnership and built by Laing Management Contracting for the St Martins Group, this iconic structure is part of a bustling complex comprising offices, flats, and shops. As we gaze up at the entrance to No. 1 London Bridge from its north-west corner, we are instantly captivated by its unique angles and striking design. The intricate details of this 1980s masterpiece are beautifully captured in this image from Historic England Archive. The redevelopment of the former Hays Wharf site on the south bank of River Thames took place over two and a half years between 1985-1988. This ambitious project not only included No. 1 London Bridge but also other notable landmarks such as Cottons, Hays Galleria, and 29-33 Tooley Street. It is worth noting that during its construction phase, this building contract held immense significance for both London and the entire country. Not only was it one of the largest construction projects nationwide but also marked a significant milestone in shaping London's ever-evolving skyline.
