Pimlico
Area of Central London, England
About
Pimlico () is a district in Central London, in the City of Westminster, built as a southern extension to neighbouring Belgravia.
It is known for its garden squares and distinctive Regency architecture. Pimlico is demarcated to the north by Victoria Station, by the River Thames to the south, Vauxhall Bridge Road to the east and the former Grosvenor Canal to the west. At its heart is a grid of residential streets laid down by the planner Thomas Cubitt, beginning in 1825 and now protected as the Pimlico Conservation Area. The most prestigious are those on the three garden squares: St George's Square, Warwick Square, Eccleston Square, and the wider avenues of Belgrave Road and St. George's Drive.
