context_page_description: The Building Centre is a building in central London used to promote innovation in the built environment. It is run by the Building Centre Trust, a charitable body. The centre was opened in 1931 in New Bond Street and operated there until 1941, when its building was destroyed during The Blitz. As a result it moved to Conduit Street and was based there until 1951, when it moved to its present home in Store Street.
  New London Architecture is one of many building and architecture organisations located in the Centre. The NLA galleries feature changing exhibitions related to London’s built environment and a permanent 1:2000 scale interactive model of central London, known as the New London Model, which includes models of buildings that are under construction or have been proposed in London.
  Other tenants of the building include: the Built Environment Trust, the Construction Industry Council, the Construction Products Association, the Construction Youth Trust, and the UK Green Building Council.
  Admission to the galleries on the ground floor and lower ground floor is free. The Centre's café is operated by The Gentlemen Baristas, who also run a coffee school which is open to the public.
