This view looks north towards its junction with Seven Dials. The area has moved upmarket in the last 10-15 years having once been the archetypal bedsit land with the shops reflecting that change, bistros and cafe bars now in abundance. The building to the right of the white building is a former public convenience that has been converted into two retail units; a florist and a small cafe. The bookmakers may hark back to the area's former lack of glory but the shop beyond the tree, a sushi bar reflects today's clientele.
