Here the London College of Furniture, the furniture district's own trade school, then stood among clothing factories, warehouses and telephone-engineering premises, whose survivors now define Shoreditch's character. The college began in 1899 as the Shoreditch Technical Institute, housed in the Haberdashers' almshouses of 1825 on Pitfield Street, which are now flats, and it left for Commercial Road in 1971. Aske Gardens, which have been public since 1898, became Joe White Gardens in 2023. The sheet also names Shoreditch Fire Station, which is still operational, the City University Cranwood Annexe, the General Post Office Telephone Engineering Centre, and West Court and East Court housing. The plan was kept current for fire-risk assessment with pasted slips recording new uses, altered layouts and rebuilding, and its latest correction, dated March 1970, marks Centre Court tenements under construction. The sheet was reissued in July 1938, with a 1950 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 Chart Street, Buttesland Street, Corsham Street, Baches Street, Brunswick Place, Cranwood Street, Staff Street and Vince Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371746546011,"sku":"P-9-001154","price":190.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001154a_96d1176f-3ec3-4351-a88e-d5302faf4de5.jpg?v=1792149103"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/pitfield-street.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
