Architectural Walking Tour

When:  Jun 7, 2022 from 06:00 PM to 07:30 PM (BST)
Associated with  United Kingdom
BOOKING NOW AVAILABLE TO NON-MEMBERS

Join Peter Wynne Rees, former City Planning Officer for the City of London, on a walk through the City of London.

“The character of a place is chiefly created by the disposition, configuration and quality of its spaces - architecture is just the icing on the cake.”

“I spent 3 decades as City Planning Officer. During which time I nicknamed some skyscrapers; correctly predicted that 1 Poultry would become a listed building; insisted on stone elevations at Broadgate (mistake); and took the bling out of the Bloomberg project - for example.”

“In 1985 City pubs closed at 8:30 pm - since then, we’ve put the place back into workplace.”

If this has sparked your interest or aroused your ire please join me on a walk through “my” City. If not, come anyway, there’s a drink at the end of it.
[HEALTH and SAFETY NOTICE: There is no off-switch on a Welshman.]   

The cost is £25 + VAT.  Capacity is limited to 15 spaces only, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

Post walk drinks venue kindly provided by IWG.
