Quiet in comparison to Moorgate, which it parallels, especially in this mid-afternoon shot. The modern brown building in the distance houses UBS. The mode of dress for city employees seems to have modernised somewhat - note the man making his way briskly to the next meeting in shirtsleeves and backpack. Whatever happened to brollies, briefcases, bowlers and pin-stripes? ;-)
