- Bracken_House,_London abstract "Bracken House London is a building at 10 Cannon Street in the City of London. A late example of modern classicism, it was constructed from 1955 to 1958 to a design by Sir Albert Richardson to serve as the headquarters and printing works of the Financial Times newspaper, on a cleared bomb site southeast of St. Paul's Cathedral. It is a Grade II* listed building, and was the first building built after the Second World War to become listed.New offices were required for the Financial Times after it merged with the Financial News in 1945. The building was named after Brendan Bracken, who became Viscount Bracken in 1952. The building was clad in pink sandstone from Hollington, Staffordshire as an allusion to the characteristic pink colour of the newspaper, with red bricks and bronze windows, contracting with the verdigris of the copper roof. Editorial offices were located in the northern range, beside Cannon Street, with printing machinery in an octagonal structure in the centre, and more offices to the south, by Queen Victoria Street. Above the entrance on Cannon Street is an astrological clock, decorated with the face of Winston Churchill at the centre of a large gold sunburst, designed by Frank Dobson and Philip Bentham and made by Thwaites & Reed.Like other newspapers, the Financial Times moved out of central London in the 1980s, and the printing works closed in 1988. The building was sold by Pearson in 1987. In August 1987 Bracken House became is the first post-war building to become a listed building, to prevent it being demolished and replaced by a new glass and steel building proposed by Michael Hopkins and Partners. The plans were changed to incorporate the old building, redeveloped by Obayashi Corporation between 1988 and 1992. The altered building retained the old ranges to north and south, but replaced the central printing hall with a new glass and steel structure on a Hollington sandstone plinth, with boxy oriel windows inspired by Oriel Chambers in Liverpool (constructed in 1864). The building became the offices of Industrial Bank of Japan, with large open office and trading floors, with its main entrance now at 1 Friday Street to the east.The Hopkins additions were included in the Grade II* listing in 2013.".
