Show Reward Finest Building. Old London is setting an example to the world in striving for beauty. The Royal Institute of British Architects has granted a bronze medal every year for the finest street frontage built within four miles of Charing Cross. It was won this year by W. Curtis Green, for W'olsely house, Piccadilly. More than a score of fine buildings were considered by the jury : Earl Crawford, Sir Aston Webb, Paul Wa-terhouse, Wa-terhouse, Sir Reginald Blomfield and F. Guy Dawber. The quality looked for was not commercial but aesthetic and architectural. Liverpool and Manchester Man-chester already have schemes for rewarding re-warding their beautifiers. London Mall. |
