Curzon Mayfair Cinema

The Curzon Mayfair Cinema is a Grade II listed building at 37–38 Curzon Street, London W1, built in 1963–66 by H. G. Hammond for Sir John Burnet, Tait and Partners, architects.

[1] Historic England have described it as "the finest surviving cinema building of the post-war period, it is also the least altered.

Rob Kenny, a Curzon director, said at the time that they could "never obtain approval for [soundproofing] as the auditorium and surrounding walls are listed".

[2] The issue was resolved after a petition, as well as an intervention by mayor Sadiq Khan.

[4] Celebrities such as Tilda Swinton and Steven Spielberg have expressed their support behind the efforts to maintain control of the cinema under Curzon's ownership.
