Future Plans
The Old London Underground Company has proposed turning the above-ground buildings into a restaurant and make the underground space available to the London Fire Brigade Museum. As the buildings were also used by the British Government for war-planning purposes during World War II, there are plans to open these up to the public. It is hoped that the project will be finished by the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or plans:
“I want the necessity of supplying my own wants. All this costly culture of yours is not necessary. Greatness does not need it. Yonder peasant, who sits neglected, carries a whole revolution of man and nature in his head, which shall be a sacred history to some future ages.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
that follow’d,
And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
still I was not happy,
But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
