QEII Conference Centre : ウィキペディア英語版 | Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre
The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre is in the City of Westminster, London, close to the Parliament of the United Kingdom. ==History== The site now occupied by the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre was previously occupied by several buildings. At the northern end of the site were the headquarters of the Stationery Office which had originally been the "Parliamentary Mews" built in 1825 by Decimus Burton and converted in 1853-5. The southern side was occupied by the Westminster Hospital built by W & H W Inwood in 1831-4 and expanded later that century and in 1924. The previous buildings became surplus to requirements in 1950 and were demolished; designs were drawn up by Thomas Tait for building a new Colonial Office on the site; however only the foundations had been built by the time progress was halted in 1952.〔Simon Bradley and Nikolaus Pevsner, "London 6: Westminster" (The Buildings of England), Yale University Press, 2003, p. 272-3.〕
