Charing Cross station is situated on the Strand, over looking the River Thames and a very short walk to Trafalgar Square. Opened in 1864, the present building was put up in the late 1980's to provide office accommodation and clearly fits in very well with the surrounding area. This can only really be seen from the 'air' and we have to thank the arrival of the London Eye for an opportunity to appreciate its stylish architecture.
