About this event

Discover the landmark Post-War and Postmodern structures of the City of London Join Open City for a walking tour discovering some of the foremost Post-War and Postmodern buildings within the Square Mile This insightful walking tour from Broadgate to Bank — led by acclaimed architectural historian Jon Wright — chronicles how the stark and sometimes heroic forces of 1960s modernism were superseded by a more contextual architecture in the 1970s before the hi-tech and postmodern (po-mo) styles took over as the de-facto forces in commercial architecture in the 1980s and 90s.
