The Exchange was a large and prominent Victorian commercial building in central Birmingham, England, on the corner of New Street and Stephenson Place.
It was built by a private company to the designs of Edward Holmes; construction began in 1863, and the building opened on 2 January 1865.
This was topped by a turret, in which there was a clock made by John Inshaw, which was moved by electro-magnetic power.
[2] It was replaced by a 1960s office and shop development known as the Exchange Buildings, built between 1965-67, and designed by Cotton, Ballard & Blow.
[10] This building houses among other things a HSBC bank, and a 140 bedroom Premier Inn Hotel.
