Well, actually, wait. I should say something about the buildings near the unimpressive library/city hall. The city hall is just one of several buildings encircling a small garden called Horniman Circle. The circle itself is nice; as I walked through I saw office workers scattered around enjoying a break from the office. But the thing I liked most about this part of town was the surrounding architecture. The other buildings were really interesting, because they were built with a curved front to reflect their positions around the circle. These other buildings seem to have a series of other government offices in them. They are tall and stately, and with their unusual fronts they sweep around the circle, neatly enclosing it.
