Area summary
SW1V is a Westminster City Council outcode covering Pimlico (the principal area, designed by Thomas Cubitt in the 1820s-1850s on a planned grid south of Belgravia) and parts of West End and Vincent Square. Pimlico's distinctive grid of stucco-fronted Italianate terraces is one of the most architecturally significant Victorian planned developments in central London. Dolphin Square (a 1937 mansion-block development with 1,250 flats) is a notable mid-20th-century purpose-built apartment complex. Tachbrook Estate is a substantial post-war council and ex-council estate.
Pimlico, Victoria, Sloane Square and Vauxhall stations serve the outcode. The Victoria Line opened at Pimlico in 1972.
