No. 9 was the studio of renowned British photographer Gered Mankowitz who, on March 9th 1967, photographed Jimi Hendrix in the building. On that day Mankowitz took the portrait that would become the most important photograph of his entire career and possibly the most famous studio portrait of Hendrix ever taken, ‘Classic Jimi’. Our intricate project comprising the extensive internal and external refurbishment and extension of No. 9 Mason’s Yard, to create contemporary prime space among the art galleries in the heart of St. James’s, is the next step in the building’s rich history. #jimihendrix #1960s #photography #mankowitz #music #history #refurbishment #contemporary #architecture #gallery #renovation #stjames #london #blackandwhitephotography #greenawayarchitecture (at Mason's Yard, Westminister) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co5Z95GMfuW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
