1936, 1950-2002, predominant 1982-1988
File 122
File documents a set of proposals for development of the South Bank area of London, England, initially commissioned by the Greater London Council. Proposed additions and changes to the South Bank include a Ferris wheel-like observation tower called "The Thing", a mile-long pedestrian bridge called the "C P bridge" running between the Charing Cross and Waterloo stations, and major modifications to existing buildings including the Shell Centre, the Royal Festival Hall, and County Hall. Material in this file was produced in 1936 and between 1950 and 2002, but predominantly between 1982 and 1988.
File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, publication drawings, reference drawings, other drawings, presentation panels, other panels, a model, photographic materials, and textual records.
Materials in this series were kept in the original order in which they were received.
