IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Aquest edifici art decó es troba prop de Russell Square, però amagat en un carreró lateral. S'el coneixia com a Daimler Car Hire Garage, i després Frames Coach Station; fou construit el 1931 com a garatge, com es pot veure per la seva estructura. Ara son oficines de lloguer.

 

===================

 

This gorgeous art deco building, located near Russell Square, was designed in 1931 as a hire garage, and you can tell that from the façade, including circular ramps. Now it's a quite luxurious offices building.

 

It was known as Daimler Car Hire Garage, and latter, Frames Coach Station.
