The square has always attracted the most discerning occupiers. In the 1720’s, there were seven Dukes and seven Earls in residence. Even to this day, the square is still home to some of the capital’s finest houses and most internationally recognisable corporate and financial occupiers.
24 St James’s Square was originally the London Showroom and Headquarters offices for the Daimler Motor Company. The building has seen many international heads of state through its prestigious doors, most notably George V in 1912, who spent many hours there refining the specification of his new Daimler automobile.
