Carlisle House is a Grade II listed[1] Edwardian office block on Southampton Row.[2]
History
The building Edwardian in character, reflecting that of many of the blocks at the south of Southampton Row, widened in the early 20th century as a continuation of the Kingsway. It was designed by Bradshaw Gass & Hope and built between 1905 and 1906, an early example in London of a building using steel frames.[1][3]
The building was listed in 1988 and is part of the Kingsway conservation area.[4]
