TQ2978 : 147-150 Grosvenor Road

taken 12 years ago, near to City of Westminster, England

147-150 Grosvenor Road
147-150 Grosvenor Road
A handsome pair of survivals from the area's industrial past - they would have been offices or managers' houses serving wharves, reached through the arched carriageways. The showier example on the right, by F.G. Widdows, dates from c1870 and was built for Fabricotti's marble works (TQ2978 : Detail of 147-148 Grosvenor Road). Surprisingly neither is listed.
I don't think either was used at the time, but plans are afoot to convert both buildings into flats.
