Kings Place, Office building and cultural venue in King's Cross, London, England
Kings Place is a mixed-use building featuring two concert halls, art galleries, restaurants, and office spaces overlooking Regent's Canal in central London. The different areas span multiple floors, combining performance venues with daily workspace.
The building opened in 2008, marking a significant shift in the King's Cross neighborhood's development toward culture and commerce. Designed by Dixon Jones architects, it pioneered a new approach to mixing business with performance spaces in the area.
