Lutyens's Britannic House of 1924–27 was built for the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, which became BP, and it is listed Grade II* and now houses Stephenson Harwood. The gardens' bowling green of 1925 was removed when Crossrail made them a worksite from 2010 to 2020, and the redesigned gardens reopened in May 2025. Salisbury House of 1899–1901 is still used as offices, River Plate House was rebuilt as 8 Finsbury Circus in 2016, and Moorgate Station gained its Elizabeth line link in 2022. Of the banks on the sheet, Midland Bank became HSBC in 1999, and National Provincial Bank merged into National Westminster Bank on 1 January 1970. Goad's plans were compiled for fire-risk assessment and kept current with pasted slips recording new occupiers, altered layouts, demolition and rebuilding, but no individual correction on this sheet carries a date. The sheet was reissued in August 1935, with a 1949 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 South Place, Eldon Street, Wilson Street and Circus Place.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371709387099,"sku":"P-9-001112","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001112a_d17c133c-6186-4753-8ecd-ad88a520d49a.jpg?v=1792149002"},{"product_id":"goad-london-150-ec2-finsbury-square-finsbury-pavement-sun-street-1950-1970-map-p-9-001157","title":"Goad London 150—EC2—Finsbury Square—Finsbury Pavement—Sun Street 1950 (1970) map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eCharles Goad Insurance Plan of London, sheet 150 [Finsbury Square, Finsbury Pavement, Sun Street and Wilson 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 150, covers Finsbury Square and Finsbury Pavement (EC2), and its curiosity is the Lex Garage beneath the square's garden. The car park is still there, run by NCP, under a square that keeps its bowling green. The square of 1777 lost its Georgian houses to commercial blocks, among them City Gate House of 1930 by Giles Gilbert Scott and the London \u0026amp; Manchester Assurance offices. That insurer passed to Friends Provident in November 1998 and is now part of Aviva. The sheet also names Dominion Buildings, commercial offices and basement car parks. It was drawn for fire-risk assessment and amended with pasted overlays recording new uses and rebuilding. Its latest dated corrections, from March 1970, include a vacancy note at 33 Wilson Street, while upper floors at 39 Wilson Street, in block 2872, were marked vacant in June 1968.
