Description: | In 1908-11 the Royal Liver Assurance Company erected a new head office on Liverpool's waterfront. The two Liver Birds that sit on top of the building are a cross between an Eagle and a Cormorant (the bird of good luck for sailors). The Cunard Building was erected in 1913-16 as the head offices for the Cunard Steamship Company. The six-storey building is constructed in the style of an Italian palazzo. | Subjects: | Clock Tower Institutional Building Dome Office Trade And Commerce Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Buck, K | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
