Which architect designed Regent's Park, Regent Street, and the Marble Arch?
"Marble Arch Marble Arch is a 19th-century white marble-faced triumphal arch in London, England. The structure was designed by John Nash in 1827 to be the state entrance to the cour d'honneur of Buckingham Palace; it stood near the site of what is today the three-bayed, central projection of the palace containing the well known balcony. In 1851 on the initiative of architect and urban planner, Decimus Burton, one time pupil of John Nash, it was relocated and following the widening of Park Lane in the early 1960s is now sited, incongruently isolated, on a large traffic island at the"
"In Regent's Park he designed the domed visitor attraction, the London Colosseum. He also laid out Green Park, London, and designed Carlton House Terrace. He also worked on Buckingham Palace, from where he had Nash's Marble Arch facing the Palace moved to its present site, and enclosed the Palace forecourt. He was the designer of the original Charing Cross Hospital, off Trafalgar Square. Outside the capital his projects ranged from North Yorkshire to Dorset and westwards to Cobh in Ireland. He was responsible for the layout and architecture of the seaside towns of Fleetwood and St Leonards-on-Sea and of the"
"Quinlan Terry's Regent's Park villas Quinlan Terry's Regent's Park villas are six large detached villas on the north-western edge of London's Regent's Park designed by the English Neo-Classical architect Quinlan Terry between 1988 and 2004. Terry designed each house in a different classical style, intended to be representative of the variety of classical architecture, naming them the ""Veneto Villa"", ""Doric Villa"", ""Corinthian Villa"", ""Ionic Villa"", ""Gothick Villa"" and the ""Regency Villa"" respectively. The houses are located on a strip of land between Regent's Park's Outer Circle and the Regent's Canal on the north-western edge of the park, with Hanover Lodge"
"systematically into newly planned developments, and the covered arcade of shops was introduced, with the Burlington Arcade in London (1815–19) the earliest. John Nash was the architect most associated with the Regency style; he was fully in tune with the commercial requirements of developers and designed the Regency terraces of Regent's Park and Regent Street in London. He had many pupils who disseminated his style, or in the case of Pugin rebelled against it. In London itself there are many streets in the style in the areas around Victoria, Pimlico, Mayfair and other central districts. John Soane was more individualistic,"

However, to the chagrin of Nash, Decimus largely disregarded his advice and developed the Terraces according to his own style, to the extent that Nash sought the demolition and complete rebuilding of Chester Terrace, but in vain. Decimus's terraces were built by his father, James Burton (property developer). Clockwise from the north the terraces are: Immediately south of the park are Park Square and Park Crescent, also designed by Nash. Nine villas were built in"
"leading proponent of Regency Classicism, and some of his finest works survive in London. These include Nash's grand residential terraces surrounding Regents Park: Cumberland Terrace, Cambridge Terrace, Park Square, and Park Crescent. Nash's heavy use of stucco on these buildings was often deceptive as much as it was aesthetic: stucco served to obscure inferior-quality construction caused by hurried building and cost-cutting measures because Nash had a financial interest in the Regent's Park developments. The designs for other Regents Park terraces (Cornwall, Clarence and York) were entrusted to Decimus Burton, an architect who specialized in Greek Revival. These imposing terraces employ"

His reputation rests mainly on his Peter Jones Department Store, Sloane Square and King's Road, Chelsea, London (1932–37), designed for John Spedan Lewis (1885–1963), the founder of the John Lewis Partnership. Crabtree worked in collaboration with Slater & Moberly, with Professor Sir Charles Herbert Reilly (1874−1948), Crabtree's former mentor at Liverpool University, as a consultant.

"James Morgan (engineer) James Morgan (1776?– 18 February 1856) was a British architect and engineer, notably associated with the construction of the Regent's Canal in London. Morgan is thought to have been born in Carmarthen, south Wales, where he became employed by noted architect and planner John Nash – an association which was to last some 40 years. As a master-planner, Nash often left the completion of projects to his assistants and Morgan was no exception. His 1811 masterplan for Regent's Park and the surrounding areas, for example, saw Morgan gainfully employed in supervising much of the park's layout. That"

In 1987 the Regent Park's Crown Estate Commissioners commissioned the Neo-Classical English architect Quinlan Terry to build six detached villas that echoed the style of Nash. Terry said in a 2002 interview that the Crown Estate had told him to ""step into Nash's shoes and carry on walking"". Prior to the villas' construction Terry had said also that it was a ""glorious opportunity to tidy up a superb site"" The villas were constructed from the late 1980s to 2002. Several"

His first major commissions in (1809–1826) from the Prince were Regent Street and the development of an area then known as Marylebone Park. With the Regent's backing, Nash created a master plan for the area, put into effect from 1818"

However documents from the period show that Oliver was the architect. In 1830 Grainger began work on the Royal Arcade, a shopping arcade at the bottom of Pilgrim Street. There is some doubt as to who designed this. Dobson is usually given the credit, but it may have been Oliver. The building was completed in 1832 but was demolished in the 1960s.
