The Exchange Building

The Exchange Building is located on the A1202 Inner London Arterial Ring Road at 132 Commercial Street in Tower Hamlets.

The building features the original metal and glass window design, which was intended to resemble the original Telephone Exchange style, with residential flats on each floor.

The Exchange Building benefits from 24-hour porters as well as an underground car park.

Built in 1936 on the former site of the Royal Cambridge Music Hall, it was originally a sleek and showier extension of the former tobacco works of Godfrey Philips & Son trading at 116 Commercial St.

Above the central entrance, raised attic with Art Deco fluting and clock.
