Modern Art Gallery.

This building used to be a power station and was for a long time scheduled for demolition until it found new life as the sister Gallery of the Tate Gallery.

The name Tate comes from Henry Tate, the sugar merchant from Tate and Lyle fame after he donated many works of art to the Tate Gallery.
