In short: Marconi House on the Strand was the home of early BBC radio broadcasts in the 1920s and has since been converted into luxury apartments, with the ME London hotel next door. It sits between Covent Garden, Aldwych and the Thames, with Temple, Covent Garden and Charing Cross stations nearby. Apartments come up to rent when owners let them, so registering early is the best way to secure one. Fraser Bond helps tenants find homes at Marconi House and nearby, and helps owners let and manage them.
