Smithfield Market Architecture: London Building

Smithfield Market

John McAslan’s Smithfield proposal is ‘sophisticated’, states English Heritage. Save Britain’s Heritage calls the plans the ‘worst mutilation of a major Victorian building in 30 years’. The market halls date from 1883, but derelict for the last 15 years, are facing a controversial £160m plan to scoop out their innards and insert six-storey blocks of shops and offices in their place.
