NOTES: The building was designed by Shaw & Lloyd. Goldfinger and Perriand were responsible for the design of the arcade on the ground floor of 177-179 Piccadilly (including the plate glass frontage and 4 feet behind), for the French Government Tourist Office, Societe National des Chemins de Fer (SNCF) and U.A.T. (French Airlines). They also designed the centre showroom of the French Government Tourist Office, at No.178 Piccadilly, and the shopfront sign "France".
