Goodge Street tube station was one of several London Underground Stations designated as air-raid shelters.

Later, Goodge Street General Eisenhower's headquarters which was used for coordinating the D-day activities. (i.e. in 1944)

and, this site states that Bushey Park was used as an HQ for SHAEF operations .... (not, seemingly 'THE' HQ then!!!

seems Eisenhower had more HQ's than cups of tea!!

His statue is in Grosvenor Square!!
