Talk:Piccadilly Circus tube station

Surely "tube station" is not part of its official name. Where should this article be? Rmhermen 23:19 20 May 2003 (UTC)

Discussion of new art piece in Piccadilly Circus
I recently made an update to this page, adding the Frank Pick memorial artwork by Langlands & Bell. These were then reverted as "plugging (my) art exhibition".

I explained to Redrose64 that I have no connection to Art on the Underground, London Underground, TFL or any other transportation body. I am merely a curious individual with an interest in the topic - and a desire to improve the wikipedia articles thereof. They suggested that "the best thing to do is to raise a thread at the talk page". '

'Ergo,' My update was:


 * In 2016, Art on the Underground commissioned "Beauty < Immortality", an artwork by Langlands & Bell to commemorate Frank Pick, the former CEO of London Transport, on the 75th anniversary of his death.
 * The artwork is located in a prominent place on the wall of the ticket hall, with a Frank Pick tube roundel and bronze lettering in Johnston, a typeface commissioned by Pick in 1915, which is still used across the London transport network today.



I would be delighted to discuss these improvements and other issues. 86.13.122.76 (talk) 11:13, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Omission - How was the new ticket hall constructed?
There is no information here about how the new ticket hall was constructed during the 1920s. Eg, was an umbrella bridge used as at Oxford Circus? FreeFlow99 (talk) 09:57, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
