DEPLOYMENT NOTES:
Whitehall Place plus Whitehall = Black Box?!
PROPERTY NOTES:
Whitehall is the main artery running north from Parliament Square, towards Charing Cross. Recognised as the centre of HM Government, the road is lined with government departments/ministries; "Whitehall" is therefore also frequently used as a metonym for overall UK governmental administration.
The name is taken from the vast Palace of Whitehall that used to occupy the area but which was largely destroyed by fire in 1698.
The central portion of the street is dominated by military buildings, including the Ministry of Defence. The road also hosts equestrian statues of George, Duke of Cambridge, a former Army Commander-in-Chief and Earl Haig, Commander in Chief of the British Armies in France 1915-1918. Scotland Yard, the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police, was originally located in Great Scotland Yard off the north-eastern end of the street, but relocated to New Scotland Yard on the Victoria Embankment in 1890. Downing Street leads off the south-west end of Whitehall, just above Parliament Street. It is closed to the public at both ends by security gates erected in 1989.
