Albertropolis

Bill writes: We saw this building on our "Albertropolis" walk through London with our class last Tuesday. I was fond of this building across from the Albert Hall. By the way, I had a friend named Albert Hall in high school. Just thought I'd put that in.



And here is the Albert Memorial, of which there is no Victorian memorial more over-the-top. If you look closely near the white base of the memorial on the right hand side, you can see a fellow cleaning the monument. He's doing it with a kitchen dish sponge. I will never, ever complain about doing the washing up after dinner again.



We also went to the British Museum, which is a grand building inside.



and out.



And I thought this new building across from the Royal College of London was clever. Not enough money for a nice design, so they put in reflective glass and simply reflected the original tower from the college.
