The Exchange Building, Architectural structure in Tower Hamlets, England.

The Exchange Building stands eight stories tall with metal and glass windows, featuring a central entrance marked by an Art Deco attic and clock.

Built between 1922 and 1936, the structure replaced the Royal Cambridge Music Hall and initially served as an extension for Godfrey Philips tobacco works.

The building represents the transition of East London's commercial buildings into residential spaces at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

The property includes underground parking facilities and maintains 24-hour porter service for its residential occupants throughout all eight floors.

Despite its initial purpose as a British Telecom exchange, the company never occupied the building, selecting an alternative location on Jerome Street instead.
