The main feature to Liverpool Street is Liverpool Street Train Station. One of the London train stations to be included on the Monopoly boards, Liverpool Street serves as one of the key access points for commuters arriving in the City by train, tube and bus.
Liverpool Street, which was previously known as Old Bethlam, was named after Lord Liverpool who was the British Prime Minister from 1812 – 1827. A chunk of Liverpool Street is used for one of the entrances to Liverpool Street Station. Aside from the station, the street is lined with shops, restaurants and offices. Sir Terence Conran’s highly acclaimed restaurant ‘Aurora’ is at 40 Liverpool Street. Constantly a bustling street due to the people coming in and out of the station, Liverpool Street is one of the hearts of the City close to many national and international companies.
Liverpool Street train station first opened in 1874 after being selected by Great Eastern Railways to be a site for a new City station. Liverpool Street station can be accessed by Bishopsgate, Liverpool Street and Sun Street EC2. The station went through huge renovation works from 1985 – 1992 and it incorporated Broadgate Station.
