NOTES: Sudbury House was a 1960s office block, built as part of the Paternoster Square development around St Paul's Cathedral after the second world war. In 1982 the CEGB commissioned architects Austin-Smith-Lord to carry out a refurbishment of the interior and a rolling programme was put in place, which was completed in 1987. This image was taken at the completion of the work.
NOTES: The original law courts were built in 1672 by Nicodemus Tessin, but were rebuilt after a fire in 1732. In 1814-1817 an upper storey was added and the facade reworked by C. W. Carlberg. Later in the 19th century wings were added to the north and west, creating a central courtyard and the adjacent Commandant's House was taken over in1880 for use as offices. Asplund won a competition to redesign the courts in 1913, which was finally completed in 1937.
NOTES: The original theatre by John and Benjamin Green dates from 1836-1837. It was gutted by fire in 1901 and was given a new interior by Frank Matcham. In 1986 the theatre closed for a major restorating programme, carried out by Renton Howard Wood Levine Levin Partnership, which included the remodelling of the balconies and insertion of a new staircase. It re-opened in 1988. See RIBA132835 for a black and white version of this image.
