30 James Street has a rectangular footprint and stands three bays wide on The Strand and five bays wide on James Street. The building comprises a steel-frame clad in stone and brick. It extends over six main storeys with a further two storeys in the attic space. The lower two storeys and basement are faced in large masonry stonework, while those above are faced in horizontal bands of pink brick and Portland stone, locally earning the building the nickname the 'streaky bacon' building.(Submitted on October 11, 2026, by Ian Lefkowitz of New York, New York.)
