Shell-Mex House
Another view snatched from the 59 bus as it crossed Waterloo Bridge. Nicely floodlit, this is the Art Deco Shell-Mex House that overlooks the Victoria Embankment. The Grade II listed building is also known as 80 Strand. It was completed in 1932, designed by Frances Milton Cashmore. The building ceased to have any connection with Shell after the 1990s. Latterly the headquarters of Shell UK, the company relocated and sold the freehold.
