Public Meeting with Griff Rhys Jones to Save Liverpool Street Station

Griff Rhys Jones, the President of the Victorian Society and the LISSCA Campaign, to Save Liverpool Street Station will be hosting a free public meeting.

Hear how we can stop the partial demolition of Liverpool Street station and prevent a huge tower being cantilevered through and over the Grade II* listed former Great Eastern hotel.

Come to the public meeting and hear from experts how:

Liverpool Street Station would be partially demolished with a huge tower cantilevered through and over the Grade II* listed hotel

Commuters would face 10 years of disruption

The train sheds and concourse would be in constant gloom under the tower

Improvements the scheme claims to pay for are already happening

The plans would set a terrible precedent meaning no listed building is safe from having a tower built on top

The so called ‘eco tower’ would require huge amounts of carbon emissions for its construction

What is the justification for offices in this area?

You can help us stop all this!

Seats for the event are First Come, First Served on the night.

The Victorian Society is chairing the reformed Liverpool Street Station Campaign (LISSCA) which stopped the station’s total demolition in the 1970s. The campaign committee is comprised of SAVE Britain’s Heritage, The Twentieth Century Society, Historic Buildings & Places, The Georgian Group, The Spitalfields Trust, Civic Voice, London Historians, The Betjeman Society, The Council for British Archaeology, London and Middlesex Archaeological Society and The Victorian Society. The campaign Society is now fundraising on Justgiving to cover the legal costs of a public inquiry.
