It is well known that before gallery found place in Chelsea it was located in County hall. I think that they made a very right thing when they decided to move. Southbank area is always full of tourists because of the "London eye", "Big ben" and "Aquarium". Gallery became a place that is always full of random people. Very often some of them couldn't even find a difference between contemporary and modern art. Gallery became a victim of her own free admission politic. Now when they moved to the Duke of York's former headquarter which is in Chelsea it is definitely only art lovers are there and no more random people even if admission is still free. Here are some pictures from Southbank times.
