Completed in 1957, this is Great Arthur House, a 1 Completed in 1957, this is Great Arthur House, a 16 storey tower, the result of Geoffry Powell’s winning entry for the 1952 competition to build Golden Lane Estate on a seven acre site. It led to the creation of Chamberlin, Powell & Bon who went on to design the Barbican Estate. At 15 storeys, according to JRA who led its 2018 restoration project, ‘it was the first building to break the 100ft height limit in the City of London and for a short time was the tallest inhabited building in the UK.’ Corbusier’s influence is clear.  The curtain wall gives Great Arthur House its distinctive character, but it’s the roof that makes you look twice. That great curved lip pushes out over the top of the tower like a visor, a brilliant  bold element that gives the whole building its unmistakable silhouette.
