University Ave. Entrance of the Hunterian Museum

Romantic architecture at its finest. This is the entrance/view from the north, along University Avenue.

 

The buildings are going to GLEAM when they finally clean off the stone.

 

Great vision from Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. You can scoff at the Victorians' revival of what they perceived as "Gothic style" - but they really did have a vision of a unified, corporatist society and they wanted to build an alternative to the technologies of their time.
