The square, named after former American president Franklin Delano Roosevelt, has quite a few interesting buildings and landmarks. The Hungarian Academy of Sciences borders the square on the northern side. Looking out on the right, there is a full panorama of the Buda Castle District and the Chain Bridge. Built in perfect symmetry with the Chain Bridge stands the Art Nouveau-style Gresham Palace, a former continental headquarters of the London-based Gresham insurance company, today giving home to a luxury hotel. Next to it is the Ministry of Justice building.
