Fitting tribute: Plans for monuments to honour Queen’s historic reign unveiled

During her 70-year reign, high-profile buildings and projects were named in her honour, notable among them the London Underground’s Elizabeth Line and Elizabeth Tower, which houses the legendary “Big Ben” bell in Westminster. Since the Queen’s death last September, politicians have called for the construction of a major memorial in central London to mark her status as the country’s longest-serving monarch.
