Hmmm, it turns out that even THAT building wasn't the original, but was, itself, called "New ...". So the current Shaws building should be "New New ... " :-)

>>New Scotland Yard is the new building that the Met moved into (back in the 60s, I think). Before that, the HQ was an imposing red brick edifice actually in Scotland Yard. If you see any old B&W movies from the time, with "Chief Inspector Whoever of the Yard" then you'll likely get glimpses of its edifice.
