Macdonald House, Former diplomatic building in Mayfair, United Kingdom
The seven-story Neo-Georgian structure at 1 Grosvenor Square displayed symmetrical architecture with tall windows and decorative stonework across its facade.
From 1938 to 1960, the building served as the United States Embassy before becoming the High Commission of Canada until 2014.
The building facilitated diplomatic relations between Canada and the United Kingdom through numerous official meetings and governmental functions.
In 2013, the Canadian government sold the property for 530 million dollars to consolidate diplomatic operations at Canada House on Trafalgar Square.
The original facade of Macdonald House was dismantled and reconstructed during its transformation into №1 Grosvenor Square residential complex.
