Bevin Court, Modernist residential building in Finsbury, England
The structure features three wings surrounding a central staircase with red and white color scheme, offering panoramic views across London from its upper levels.
Originally planned as Lenin Court due to the Soviet leader's nearby residence in exile, the building was renamed after British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin in 1954.
The entrance hall contains a restored mural titled Winged Bulls, Day and Night by Peter Yates, along with a 3D printed bust of Ernest Bevin.
The residential complex includes communal gardens with allotments and provides convenient access to Angel and King's Cross Underground stations.
The building represents a notable example of prefabricated construction techniques, marking an advancement in British architectural methods during the post-war period.
