Admiralty Arch, London
Admiralty Arch is a large office building in London which incorporates an archway providing road and pedestrian access between The Mall, which extends to the southwest, and Trafalgar Square to its northeast. The building was commissioned by King Edward VII in memory of his mother Queen Victoria, although he did not live to see its completion. A Latin inscription along the top reads ANNO DECIMO EDWARDI SEPTIMI REGIS VICTORIÃâ REGINÃâ CIVES GRATISSIMI MDCCCCX which means In the tenth year of King Edward VII, to Queen Victoria, from most grateful citizens, 1910.
