'Where London University Shares Quarters With The Imperial Institute', c1935. Designed by Thomas Collcutt and opened in 1887, the Imperial Institute in Kensington, London, was intended to be a 'monument to the emerging imperial sentiment'. The buildings were demolished in the 1950s and 1960s after the institute closed, with the exception of the Queen's Tower, which still stands today on the campus of Imperial College. From "Wonderful London, Volume 1", edited by Arthur St John Adcock. [The Fleetway House, London, c1935]
