The sheet shows Lloyd's in Edwin Cooper's building of 1928 at the Leadenhall Street corner. That building was demolished to make way for Richard Rogers' inside-out building of 1978–86, and only Cooper's entrance survives. Horace Jones's market of 1881 is shown as meat and fish premises, in contrast to the shops, bars and restaurants now in its Victorian arcades. The market has undergone a change of activity within surviving buildings, rather than the wholesale rebuilding seen elsewhere in the City. The same arcades stood in for the streets around the Leaky Cauldron in the first Harry Potter film. Royal Mail House, Lloyds Bank and a Barclays Bank construction site are also named on the sheet. Insurers judged property and fire risk from these plans, which were kept current with pasted slips recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated correction on this sheet is August 1969. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in August 1945, with a 1949 copyright date, and the key plans acquired with it carry corrections as late as October 1970 and March 1971.

The sheet shows the Corporation of Lloyd's in relatively new premises, opened in 1958, on the east side of Lime Street. They gave way to Foster's Willis Building of 2008, which today preserves the insurance connection on a much larger scale. Prudential House, shown at the Leadenhall Street corner, made way for the Scalpel tower, completed in 2018. The block between Fenchurch Avenue and Billiter Street is now One Fen Court, whose free roof garden opened in 2019. The sheet also names Baltic House, Atlantic House and the offices of Commercial Union, Eagle Star and Royal Insurance, which have since merged into Aviva, Zurich and Royal \u0026amp; Sun Alliance respectively. The plans were made to assess property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding.

The station of 1841 still keeps its 1854 frontage, but it lost its train shed to office blocks built over the platforms in the 1980s. Lloyd's Register remains in Collcutt's building of 1901, which Richard Rogers extended in 2000. The sheet's latest dated correction, from August 1969, is an alteration note on the offices of Lloyd's Register. The sheet also shows the Institute of Marine Engineers in its Memorial Building of 1957 in Mark Lane, commemorating marine engineers lost in the Second World War. The institute left in 1999 and is now IMarEST, based in Westminster. Furness House, Africa House, Lloyd's Avenue and Midland Bank are also named, as is Aldgate Pump, which is still standing. The plans were compiled to assess property and fire risk, and they were kept current with pasted overlays recording changed uses, altered layouts, demolition and new building.

The Commercial Union building and the P\u0026amp;O Building are marked under construction in August 1969, and their elevated walkways and plaza were then replacing the older pattern of premises. The P\u0026amp;O Building came down in 2007–08 to make way for Rogers's \"Cheesegrater\" of 2014. Demolition of the Commercial Union tower began in 2025 to make way for 1 Undershaft, which was consented in 2024 at almost 310 metres. St Helen's Bishopsgate, the City's largest surviving parish church and once Shakespeare's, was wrecked by the bombs of 1992 and 1993 and restored by Quinlan Terry by 1995. Baring Brothers had been at 8 Bishopsgate since 1806 when it collapsed in 1995. Midland Bank became HSBC in 1999, and The Chartered Bank merged into Standard Chartered in 1969.

The IRA bomb of 10 April 1992 killed three people and wrecked the Exchange, and the ruin was razed in 1998. Its site, together with the neighbouring Chamber of Shipping, is now 30 St Mary Axe, Foster's Gherkin of 2004, where a landmark tower has taken the place of a specialised trading hall.

Aldgate Pump still stands at the Leadenhall Street junction, with its lantern recreated in 2019, and GPO offices and stores are also marked. Printers around Mitre Square and Creechurch Lane, together with warehouses and tobacco storage, show how production and the handling of goods persisted among the City offices. The later headquarters development at One Creechurch Place, beside Mitre Square, illustrates the area's further turn towards office employment.
