EDITORS COMMENTS
St. James's Hall, Great Portland Street, London (circa 1910) This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to the early 1910s in London, England. The image showcases the impressive facade of St. James's Hall, located on Great Portland Street. St. James's Hall was a significant building during this era, standing tall and proud amidst the bustling cityscape. Its grand architecture, with its ornate details and intricate stonework, reflects the elegance and sophistication of the time. The building's large size and imposing presence are evident, making it a landmark in the area. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the history of broadcasting in London. St. James's Hall was once home to the BBC's first broadcasting studio, where the British Broadcasting Company (later known as the British Broadcasting Corporation) began its journey to bring radio to the masses. The building housed the first regular radio broadcasts, which started on November 14, 1922. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, where horse-drawn carriages share the streets with motorcars, and the city's architecture is a testament to the grandeur of the past. St. James's Hall, with its rich history and architectural beauty, stands as a symbol of London's past and its continued evolution into a global cultural hub.
