Additional Details:
Piccadilly Circus is formed by the intersecting of the two fashionable thoroughfares of Regent Street and Piccadilly. Many other streets also converge at this point, and handsome shops, theatres, restaurants, and public buildings render this a very fine Circus. The bronze fountain and statue of Mercury in the middle was unveiled in 1893, in memory of Lord Shaftesbury, the philanthropist. Alfred Gilbert, A.R.A., was the designer
