The Lyric of 1888 is the avenue's oldest survivor. The London Pavilion, by then a cinema, closed in 1981 and was gutted in 1986 behind its façade of 1885, and it now holds a Zedwell hotel that opened in September 2025. On Great Windmill Street, the Cameo News Theatre closed in 1990 and is a restaurant today. At No. 41, the basement cinema-club label identifies the premises of the Scene, the mod club of 1963–66 where the Rolling Stones and the Who played. The Who appeared on 26 August 1964, during their brief spell as the High Numbers; the Scene itself had closed before the sheet's final revision. Behind the theatres, in the sheet's day, National Car Parks occupied valuable ground around Ham Yard, where the Ham Yard Hotel of 2014 brought accommodation, shops and restaurants, a striking change from vehicle storage to the visitor economy. Goad's working 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 latest dated correction is October 1970, on a large overlay marking an area vacant. The sheet was resurveyed and reissued in October 1950, with a 1950 copyright date, and the key plan acquired with this group records corrections to October 1970. Other streets on the sheet include Coventry Street, Piccadilly, Regent Street, Haymarket, Jermyn Street, Rupert Street, Sherwood Street, Archer Street, Denman Street and Oxendon Street.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54371690807643,"sku":"P-9-001082","price":280.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-9-001082a_d32be295-570f-42d2-be4e-9c9695b50385.jpg?v=1792089917","url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/fr\/products\/goad-london-214-w1-sw1-piccadilly-circus-shaftesbury-avenue-1950-1970-map-p-9-001082","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
