America and London. New embassy building in Grosvenor Square. In one of London's most magnificent squares, not far from Buckingham Palace, a modern building has replaced a block of old-fashioned houses and is the new home of the United States Embassy. In the seven storey 'skyscraper' building in Grosvenor Square the Embassy, Consulate and offices of the military, naval, commercial and agricultural attaches are grouped instead of being spread throughout London as before. Letter chutes in the walls of all the rooms are used to convey males without delay to the dispatch agency. The Ambassadors room is furnished in the American style of 1820 with the wars, panelled in silk. The new structure is the finest Embassy building in London.
