It reopened in 1953 after being gutted in wartime. The Merchant Navy War Memorial names 36,000 seafarers. Tower Hill Underground Station moved to its present site in February 1967, and the Sir John Cass Nautical College joined the City of London Polytechnic in 1970. America Square, The Crescent and Circus Street were then remnants of George Dance the Younger's scheme of 1768–74 beside the Fenchurch Street railway approaches. The bombed Circus was later cleared for road widening, though two Crescent houses survive. The sheet also names Wakefield Gardens and Midland Bank. Goad's plans were made for fire-risk assessment and kept current with pasted overlays recording new tenants, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated correction on this sheet is a vacancy note by America Square, dated November 1967. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in September 1951, with a 1951 copyright date, and key plans acquired with the group were corrected as late as October 1970 and March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Crutched Friars, Crosswall, Pepys Street, Savage Gardens, Cooper's Row, Minories and Hammett Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371710959963,"sku":"P-9-001115","price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001115a.jpg?v=1792090038"},{"product_id":"goad-london-63-ec3-aldgate-jewry-fenchurch-streets-minories-1937-1969-map-p-9-001123","title":"Goad London 63—EC3—Aldgate—Jewry \u0026 Fenchurch Streets—Minories 1937 (1969) map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 63 [Aldgate, Fenchurch Street, Minories and Jewry Street]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eGoad's fire insurance plan of London, sheet 63, covers Aldgate, Minories and Jewry Street (EC3), where the City meets the East End. The sheet names the Sir John Cass Technical Institute, which became Sir John Cass College in 1950 and merged into the City of London Polytechnic in 1970. Its successor, London Metropolitan University, dropped Cass's name from its art school in 2020 over his links to the slave trade. On Jewry Street the sheet shows the Metropolitan Bonded Vaults, with bottling rooms and substantial storage of wines and spirits. These were then working premises for handling goods, the physical trade that lay behind the offices and institutions of this eastern edge of the City. Aldgate Pump and a London Electricity Board distributing station are also named. The plans were made to assess property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted slips recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated correction, from August 1969, is an upper-floor vacancy note on Carlisle Avenue. The sheet was reissued in August 1937, with a 1949 copyright date, and the key plans acquired with it carry corrections as late as October 1970 and March 1971.
