Fun fact the great fire of London was an unintended consequence of the Doctor foiling a Terileptil plot.

It's near the Palace of Westminster. Best place to start.

But... Fuck, that's a stupid way to commemorate it. Put that model in a museum or something. For fuck sakes, England.

Our museums are too full of stolen foreign treasure to fit it in

This is how they commemorate this? Wouldn't this be like the US building two miniature towers and throwing model airplanes at them?

Plus it was a great way of cleaning up London and was essentially a great improvement for the city of London.
