The sheet shows Paddington Green Children's Hospital still occupying its own complex, with wards and an outpatients department. The hospital closed in 1987, with its facilities transferring to St Mary's, and the 1895 building is now apartments. The 1937 Odeon Cinema and basement bingo hall at 319 Edgware Road closed in 1975 and had come down by 1994, and the site is now a car park. The sheet also names Paddington police station and section house, Midland Bank offices, the Post Office telephone engineers' depot and Olympia Business Machines' machinery warehouse, along with Paddington Basin. Steel and tube stores, timber and joinery premises and builders' supplies cluster around the basin, revealing a working waterside devoted to materials, storage and repair. This industrial landscape has since given way to the offices, homes and restaurants of Merchant Square, with a floating park occupying part of the basin itself. These working plans were used to price fire risk, and pasted slips kept them current as uses changed, layouts altered and buildings fell and rose. The latest dated corrections, from February 1970, mark premises at 4-8 Praed Street as vacant and include further vacancy labels on Edgware Road. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in August 1945, with a 1951 copyright date, and a South London key plan from the same group records corrections to March 1971. Other streets on the sheet include Harrow Road, Church Street, Irongate Wharf Road, North Wharf Road and Paddington Green.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371817128283,"sku":"P-9-001285","price":210.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001285a_0e8dfaba-de79-497e-94f3-ed66f98cad0d.jpg?v=1792149434"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/collections\/newcastle-place.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
