You put me to shame, Rachel. I often used to shop in the Brunswick Centre Waitrose - and just dashed in and out again. But why did we never run into each other?
A little exhibition years ago at the RA about the buildings along Piccadilly inspired me to look up. Possibly best done from a no 19 bus as it's hard to avoid bumping into people.
You forgot Celia Paul's studio opposite the BM - you can see the plane trees that she paints from her windows. And the roof garden at the Brunei gallery is good for a chimneyscape.
I don't know, Mary! I often wonder the same, as I'm sure we're often doing the same things in and around London! I have never heard of Celia Paul - off to look now. And I've never been to the rooftop of the Brunei gallery - thank you for the tip! It just goes to show - you never really know where you live!
Wonderful! For those of us in suburbia US, these old buildings seem like magic. Thank you for taking us along on your walk. ♥️
It's a pleasure, Linda! Thank you for reading :)
