On this sheet the Langham is labelled as BBC offices and studios, with stores and workshops then filling the former hotel. The BBC sold it in 1986, and it reopened as a hotel in 1991, with production space traded for visitor accommodation. Broadcasting House of 1932 remains the BBC's headquarters, while Egton House in Langham Street, which was later Radio 1's home, was demolished in 2003 to make way for the John Peel Wing. Nash's All Souls Church stands opposite. The Regent Street Polytechnic became the Polytechnic of Central London in 1970 and is now the University of Westminster, and the sheet also marks British Council and NSPCC offices. Goad's plans were made to assess fire risk, and they carried pasted overlays recording new uses, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding. The latest dated correction here is a basement and first-floor vacancy note at 15 Little Portland Street, dated October 1970. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in October 1962, with a 1962 copyright date, and the key plan acquired with the group records corrections to October 1970. Other streets on the sheet include Regent Street, Portland Place, Chandos Street, Cavendish Place, Cavendish Square, Riding House Street, Mortimer Street, Great Portland Street and Margaret Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371692839259,"sku":"P-9-001096","price":220.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001096a_81863622-04c1-484a-81ee-b4bb30845a3a.jpg?v=1792148986"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/collections\/egton-house.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
