Moorgate station is a central London National Rail and London Underground station in the City of London, on Moorgate, north of London Wall. At one time the station was named "Moorgate Street". It is the central London railway terminus for suburban First Capital Connect services from Hertford, Welwyn Garden City and Letchworth and was, until March 2009, a terminus for trains on the Thameslink line, also run by First Capital Connect. It is the site of the Moorgate tube crash of 1975 in which 46 people were killed and 74 were injured.[3]
St Mary Moorfields is a Roman Catholic church in the City of London. The present building, located at 4-5 Eldon Street, was opened in 1903. However, the foundation had a long history prior to this. A chapel was opened in 1686, but was suspended in 1689, in the aftermath of the Revolution of 1688.
It was refurbished in 2000 which increased the height to 127 metres (417 ft) and increased the available floor space. The designer for the refurbishment was Sheppard Robson.[2] It was renamed CityPoint after its refurbishment. Its anchor tenant is Simmons & Simmons, a law firm.
In the 1940s the Arena hosted ground breaking classical music events popularising classical music for the first time including the London Music Festival in 1947 and 1948. The '48 festival included the hugely popular London debut of Pierino Gamba.[12] 10,000 people watched this ten year old boy conduct the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra playing Beethoven and DvoÅ?ák. The festival also featured the world-famous Manuel Rosenthal, who brought his Orchestre National de France to join Sir Thomas Beecham and the Royal Philharmonic in a concert that filled the Harringay Arena with 13,500 listeners
