Nach einer aufwändigen Renovierung ist im Handel House seit 2001 ein Museum über Händels Leben und Werk untergebracht. Jimi Hendrix lebte im 1968-1969 im Nachbarhaus 23 Brook Street. Als er erfuhr, dass Händel im Nebenhaus gewohnt hatte, kaufte er sich angeblich einige Händel-Aufnahmen, u. a. den Messiah und die Wassermusik.
