“125 London Wall, also known as Alban Gate, is a postmodernist building on London Wall in the City of London. Along with Embankment Place and Vauxhall Cross, it has been described as one of the three projects that established designer Sir Terry Farrell's reputation in the late 1980s-to-early 1990s period. In 2004, writer Deyan Sudjic described it as ‘postmodernism at its most exuberant’, placing it at number 5 in a list of Ten Triumphs of recent UK architecture.” (125 London Wall, Wikipedia)
