Marble Arch is a landmark building at Hyde Park Corner

Is that really correct? There is such a place as Hyde Park Corner (with an Underground station so named), but that is not where the Marble Arch stands.

Oh dear. I was wrong. It's at Speaker's Corner, not Hyde Park Corner. Thanks for pointing that out. -- Heron

pretty sure anyone can walk through the arch these days, which contradicts the beginning here of this article...

[edit] Reason for moving Marble Arch

It says here that the Arch was moved from Buckingham Palace as it was found to be too narrow for the state coach but the article on Buckingham Palace says that it was moved to make way for the new east wing that Queen Victoria wanted built.
