Mornington Crescent underground station was designed by architect Leslie Green. It opened in 1907 and serves the Charing Cross branch of the Northern line.

Green was appointed as architect for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London(UERL) to design stations for three underground railway lines then under construction – the Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway (GNP&BR), the Baker Street and Waterloo Railway(BS&WR) and the Charing Cross, Euston and Hampstead Railway (CCE&HR), which, respectively, became parts of the present day Piccadilly line, Bakerloo line and Northern line.

Green was commissioned to design 50 new stations, including their external appearance, and internal fittings and decoration. Mornington Crescent Station is a prime example of Green’s signature Modern Style (British Art Nouveau) design, featuring a distinct maroon-glazed faience facade with giant arches and Art Nouveau decorative elements.
