View northwards up Corporation Street. In the distance towers Jurys Inn, while on the corner of Volta Road a small business, typical of many in the area, survives. The alterations and deletions on the road signs betray the chaos up ahead, where the new Whalebridge roundabout layout is being installed. To the right, the white hoardings hide the vacant lot where Davis House Salvation Army hostel stood until it was demolished in 2007.
