India Buildings

Gorgeous building, inside and out.

You can't come in.

Went today Monday 28th November to renew my passport in the past it was here the actual passport office but since moved to another location - as I approached the beautiful structured entrance you feel the actual grandiosity of this special building unfortunately it’s not the same to say about the security gentleman sat on the other side, this individual was an African male in his mid 40’s I’ll assume whom struggled to construct a full sentence together in English whom was the most obnoxious individual I’ve ever had the unpleasant experience ever meeting- after explaining from the other side of the glass the reason why I was there -the individual was rude, uncanny, unsavoury character to say the least whom couldn’t give me the time of day- I explained I had traveled from Yorkshire and was here to renew a passport which he completely dismissed and kind of shewing me away as I was some sort of freak, unpleasant unprofessional finally got off his behind to actually open the door to verbally abuse and gave me a complete lie of directions completely opposite to where I needed to be- for those who may find themselves in my similar position please as word of kind advice give him a wide berth and stay well away an absolute disgrace to his profession and an insult to some prestigious Government Institution

Beautiful building inside. Full of very expensive independent shops that are not happy with tourists wandering around.

Amazing building, (that turned 100 yrs old in February)that is now HMRC regional centre. Unfortunately no public access like previous tax offices.

One of the most beautiful buildings in Liverpool. The huge lanterns outside mark the entrance. Well worth a visit. Home of the passport office.

Amazing architectural design. India Buildings is a commercial building with its principal entrance in Water Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, England. Mainly an office building, it also contained an internal shopping arcade and the entrance to an underground station. It was built between 1924 and 1932, damaged by a bomb in 1941, and later restored to its original condition under the supervision of one of its original architects. The building, its design influenced by the Italian Renaissance and incorporating features of the American Beaux-Arts style, occupies an entire block in the city.

Was working here on the refurb, was the worst experience of my life. Although this is not to do with the staff themselves more the lead contractors they hired

An amazing building with some fabulous architectural features. Well worth a walk through.
