Kilburn Campus (closed 2010) The original part of the site dates to 1890, with
Art Deco additions in the 1930s with the development of Kilburn Polytechnic. A brand new £5-million college centre was opened in Priory Park Road on 31 August 2007 by the then
Mayor of London Ken Livingstone. The Mayor told guests "To come here and see something as beautiful as this – it makes you want to do a course just to enjoy the building." He also added that "this college has been designed as a role model for what we want across London, which is to give people the opportunity to get in on the first rung of education and get the skills they want in life." In May 2008, the centre won second prize in the RIBA / LSC Further Education Design Excellence Awards, with the judges complementing the college on its contribution to the regeneration of Kilburn. In March 2010, the college announced that it would close operations at Kilburn from September 2010. The courses taught at Kilburn were transferred to the college's sites at Willesden and Wembley. In November 2010, the local
Times newspaper reported that the college was planning to sell the Kilburn campus. The sale of the site was completed in 2014. ==Honours==
