The transformation is all but completed. Nos. 4 & 5 of the old street are still standing, but are soon to be removed and the cleared site used as a car park.
Above the Church Phoenix Building has been completed but hoardings still surround the adjacent vacant site and for a short distance the original remains.
In only 5 years the west side of the street has been almost entirely rebuilt. Contrast this photograph with that taken in 1930 from almost exactly the same spot.
