Calcutta House

Old Castle Street, Aldgate. It houses the Art, Architecture and Design faculty of the London Metropolitan University.

 

The building was originally constructed as a packing factory and warehouse for the tea merchants Brooke Bond. It stands on both sides of the street, with the two halves linked by the bridge seen here at the top.

 

The road in the distance (with the red bus) is Whitechapel High Street.
