Quote:
Part of the Peabody estate Lawrence Street, 1870. Built to the original Italianate design of Henry Astley Darbishire, architect to the Peabody Trust 1864-1885.

Nicholas Bentley describes the "generosity of George Peabody, an American businessman who had established a business in London in 1837. Over a period of four years Peabody gave what was then the astionishing sum of £350,000 'To ameliorate the condition of the poor . . . and to promote their comfort and happiness' by the erection of model tenements. In London a number of these tenements, known as Peabody Buildimgs, still serve their original purtpose of housing working-class families" (72).
