County Hall, a nine-story building with more than 1,500 rooms, occupying a 6.5-acre site on the south bank of the Thames at the end of Westminster Bridge, was the headquarters of the Greater London Council until its abolition in 1986, when local government was vested in the London boroughs.

The building has been renovated and developed, now housing the London Marriott County Hall, London Aquarium, Dali Universe, and Namco Station, as well as restaurants.
