Open House for London's buildings
A London-wide celebration of architecture includes many local buildings
Local buildings will feature in the 2003 London Open House weekend, when a mixture of old and new buildings, public and private, throw their doors open to visitors over the weekend of Sept 20th - 21st.
By promoting an understanding of architecture across all sections of the community - especially children and young people - the London Open House charity encourages Londoners to take pride in their capital and expect even better buildings in the future.
You may find that these buildings become exceptionally busy, especially where they are participating for the first time. Admission is free
