Abstract: *Victorian Buildings of London, 1837–1887: An Illustrated Guide* offers a richly illustrated survey of 101 key buildings that defined London’s architectural landscape during Queen Victoria’s reign. Organized geographically with maps of central and suburban London, the guide showcases civic landmarks, churches, museums, transport hubs, and commercial structures, reflecting the era’s stylistic diversity and urban expansion. Highlights include the *New Palace of Westminster*, *Royal Albert Hall*, and *St Pancras Station*. A postscript covers notable demolished buildings, while a final section profiles the architects behind these works. This guide is both a historical record and a visual celebration of Victorian architecture.
