Everything about The Stock Exchange Tower totally explained
The
Stock Exchange Tower is a high-rise building located in the
City of London at
125 Old Broad Street. Standing at tall, with 26 floors, the tower was completed in 1970. It served as the headquarters and offices for the
London Stock Exchange until its departure for new premises in
Paternoster Square, in July 2004.
Face to face trading was conducted on the trading floor of the exchange, until it was abolished in favour of electronic trading in the 1986 deregulation of the London Stock Exchange known as
Big Bang.
On
20 July 1990, the
Provisional Irish Republican Army exploded a bomb inside the tower, causing its evacuation. The tower was also evacuated on
11 September 2001 after the attacks on the
World Trade Center.
The building is currently undergoing a major renovation which will see its façade reclad in glass and steel, and thousands of square metres more office space created.
