Location
Frobisher Crescent is the crescent-shaped building between Shakespeare Tower and the Barbican Arts and Conference Centre in the Barbican Estate (the Barbican Centre).
Frobisher Crescent forms part of the Barbican Centre. It links to the Barbican Centre itself on its east side, and some of the Barbican Centre facilities are underneath and form part of Frobisher Crescent. Frobisher Crescent also straddles the two levels or podia – north and south – of the Barbican Estate.
