The New Birmingham c. 1964

Project 38

Location	Bull Street
1964 Status	Complete
2014 Status	Extant
Name	Pearl Assurance House

This office block, located at the corner of Bull Street and Temple Row, had been completed in early 1960 by Pearl Assurance.  It remained in 2014 and appeared little changed.  Elegantly simple, I think it looks better than many of the later developments.
