Really nice underground station which is served by the Circle & district lines. Very busy underground station during the morning & evening rush hours. There is no disabled access only stairs here. Clean & tidy station staff around to help.

Mansion House Tube Station & Ormond House, 63 Queen Victoria St building was designed by The Thomas Saunders Partnership (TTSP) in 1988. Construction began in early 1989 & completed in 1990. Comprising of 6 storeys over a two storey basement it contains offices & ground floor retail outlets with an initial tender cost 13.5m Stg. It replaced a much older building which did not lend itself to open plan office layouts. Part of lower basement contains a tube station, while the upper basement has an electrical substation & plantroom. Two corners of the building have stairwells with vaulted roofs above it. The cladding is precast concrete panels with veneers of portland stone & polished Finnish coral granite. It contains a steel frame mansard roof with natural slate & stone veneer window surrounds. The larger cornice above the 4th floor projects out 900mm above the street pavement below. The polished Finnish coral granite extends into the tube station entrance. Some specialist elements of the building were tendered separately by the design team rather than through the main contractor tendering out. Such items were like the internal lifts & cladding packages. Techcrete were a nominated cladding subcontractor having won the cladding tender. Kawneer were nominated the external joinery subcontractors. The tube station was revamped using the existing transport lines. The station remained open to the public during demolition works & most of the build and until the tube station fit-out commenced. A recent internal office fit out was carried out of the 2nd floor in 2018/19 and was leased by Savills with prime rents sought. After 32 years on, this building still looks great and is a credit to all contractors & the design teams involved to which l was a member. Special credit to TTSP's Scottish-Polish Project Archt Wicek Sosna & British-Czech Archt Associate Director Yarda Vonka at that time.
