WALK | Engineering in the City

This event has now SOLD OUT
Please do add your name to the waitlist and we will contact you should a space become available.

The City’s historic and modern major engineering projects, so vital to support the Square Mile’s on-going success, rarely garner the attention given to the soaring new glass offices designed by world-famous architects that now dominate the skyline.


Join Blue Badge Guide Caroline Dale for this walk that will try to redress the imbalance by examining some recent and not-so-recent industrial-scale engineering feats that City workers pass by everyday of their working lives. The Thames Tideway Tunnel, Cannon Street Station, and Holborn Viaduct are just a few examples of innovative projects that rationalise and improve the lives of millions and deserve a fresh look on our route.
