A famous venue in north London.
Transcript
00:00Located on Upper Street in the heart of Islington is Islington Town Hall, one of North London's
00:06most recognisable civic landmarks. Built between 1922 and 1925, it was designed by an architect
00:14named E. C. P. Munson in an elegant classic style with grand columns, sweeping staircases
00:21and beautiful marble interiors that reflect the optimism of the post-First World War era.
00:28The building serves as the seat of the Islington Council, where key decisions about local services
00:35and housing and community projects are still made to this day. But it's not just a centre
00:40of government, it's also a popular venue for weddings, concerts and public events.
00:47Today Islington Town Hall stands as both a working institution and a symbol of local pride.
