Another of the many photographs showing the progress of this extensive rebuilding of this former densely populated area. Possibly taken from high up on the flats being built here, the year is most probably 1965 or 1966. Many of the landmarks can be picked out. Marks and Spencer in Western Road, the Union Church in Queens Square, Regent Cinema and Dance Hall and many others. The north side of Grenville Place is seen but not the south side, demolished in January 1965, while the line of the completely empty Upper Russell Street can clearly be traced, as can those of Cannon Street and Cannon Lane.
