London Festival of Architecture: Exclusive Tour of Haringey’s grade II listed Civic Centre prior to refurbishment

Thursday 6 June until Saturday 8 June

Haringey Civic Centre, Wood Green High Road

Haringey’s Civic Centre is an iconic local landmark. Designed in 1938, built between 1955-58, was Grade II listed in 2018, and early in 2020 it was vacated to allow for refurbishment.

Inclusive design, improving sustainability and celebrating the building’s history are the heart of redevelopment plans. Haringey’s Civic Centre will be reimagined with a new annexe, high-quality office spaces, and restored civic spaces which will see the return of its democratic activities.

The Civic Centre has been home to many of Haringey’s important historical moments. In 1985 Bernie Grant was elected leader, becoming the first ever black leader of a local authority in Europe. It is also a favourite film and TV set location featuring in season 3 of The Crown, doubling up as the Middlesex Hospital and the Guardian offices!

Join Haringey Council, Hawkins Brown Architects and Montagu Evans Heritage and Planning Consultant specialists, for a guided tour and hear about its heritage, architecture and what’s next for this very special building.

The dates of the available tours are:
Thursday 06th June 5pm – 7pm
Friday 07th June 12pm – 2pm
Saturday 08th June 10am – 12am
