"Experience London's Artiest Place to Live A residential complex, an architectural phenomenon and an arts center that houses London’s greatest orchestra — the Barbican isan icon of Brutalist architecturewhich makes its presence permanently felt on the London skyline. Its public spaces,which include a theater, a cinema, an art gallery, and a concert hall that looks like the interior of the Starship Enterprise,are cultural magnets that draw people from across the city. The resident London Symphony Orchestra is just one of the many global classical powerhouses who frequent its stage, while its close association with the neighboring Guildhall School of Music and Drama infuses it with youth and energy."
