Join The London Society for an exclusive tour of the new Tower Hamlets Town Hall, a striking transformation of the former Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel by award-winning architects AHMM (Allford Hall Monaghan Morris).
Once a Georgian medical institution, the historic hospital building has been reimagined as a 21st-century centre of local democracy—bringing together civic functions under one roof while opening up new public spaces in the heart of East London.
This is a rare opportunity to explore how a Grade II-listed site has been given new life through sensitive restoration and bold architectural intervention. Hear from those involved in the project about the challenges and opportunities of adapting a complex historic fabric into a modern civic campus—and how design has been used to promote transparency, accessibility, and community engagement.
Whether you’re interested in retrofit, adaptive reuse, civic architecture or the future of our public buildings, this tour promises to be inspiring, informative, and architecturally rich.
Places are limited—early booking is advised.
