10 Downing Street
10 Downing Street is the official residence and executive office of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, located in London. It serves as a symbol of British government and is often used for meetings with ministers, officials, and foreign dignitaries. The building combines a historic home with modern political function, featuring a door famously associated with press briefings and public appearances. The term "Downing Street" is often used to refer to the UK government as a whole, much like "the White House" in the United States.
