An American embassy figures in today's Geo Quiz. Just about anyone in London can tell you how to get to Big Ben or the London Eye. But we're looking for directions to the US embassy. The embassy in London is one of the largest American diplomatic buildings in the world. It's a bit smaller than the ones in Moscow or Mexico City, but big enough to accommodate 750 staffers. So it's easy to spot. There's a golden eagle perched over the entrance. It looks out over a statue of General Eisenhower in front of the embassy.

The embassy is packing up and moving to a more secure location. But before it goes, we want to know where in London it's located. We're checking in on a State Department announcement today for our Geo Quiz. The American Ambassador to Britain said today the U.S. plans to put its embassy in London up for sale.
