John Nash, the Architect Who Transformed London

August 30, 2006 by Vic

View the updated version of this post here.

John Nash’s buildings exemplified the neoclassical style of early 19th Century Architecture. His sweeping changes transformed London, from the graceful curve of Regent Street to the majestic terraces and vistas in Regent’s Park.

View some of his edifices below:

1. Regent’s Park
2. Regent Street
3. Buckingham Palace

We will devote an entire section to Brighton Palace later.

WhyMe?,The John Nash you are inquiring about isn’t the same person, although both men bear the same name. One was an architect who lived in the 19th century, and the other was a mathematician who lived in the 20th century.
