Westminster Notes

Victoria Embankment is the first of eight West End public toilets to be refurbished by the City of Westminster, featuring new public artworks entitled Westminster Notes.

The refurbishment of the facilities in the area is being delivered by Westminster's Delivery Partner FM Conway, in collaboration with Hugh Broughton Architects for the design and with support from the Contemporary Art Society *Consultancy, which is leading the development of the artworks. We have taken considerable care over the design and installation to provide modern and inclusive facilities for the local community.  

James Lambert has been selected to develop a series of artworks for the project, taking inspiration from Victoria Embankment Park, Cleopatra’s Needle, the River Thames, and other features from the local area.

We plan to unveil additional artworks by James Lambert in several locations over the coming months. These sites include:

• the Parliament Street pedestrian subway public toilets
• Piccadilly Circus Underground Station public toilets
• Green Park Underground Station public toilets
• Carnaby Street public toilets
• Covent Garden public toilets
• Leicester Square public toilets
• Westminster Pier public toilets

We hope you continue to visit our public toilets and enjoy the artwork.
