説明 | interesting looking building on Colmore Row, which below is now a Lloyds TSB bank. Above is current to Let.It is 114 - 116 Colmore RowThis Grade II listed building was built in 1912, by Paul Waterhouse, son of Alfred Waterhouse. It was built in the Edwardian Baroque style. A stone figure of Atlas used to be above the door.Nos. 114-116 is a full blown Barosque weddingcake of 1912 by Paul Waterhouse, for the Atlas Assurance. A big portico is hoist aloft above much rustication, circular windows, garlands and all the panoply of commerce. An extreme contrast to Lethaby: pure scene-painting with regular office floors behind, but very effective. The facadism is expressed by Mannerist detail: the large lunette window on the ground floor directly below the portico, and the two small, heavily blocked windows immediately under the pilasters.From Pevsner Architectural Guides: Birmingham by Andy Foster114 - 116 Colmore Row is a Grade II listed building.Listed as Standard House.Early C20, in an Edwardian Baroque style.
