A 1960s colour photo taken from the top of the Monument in 1964, looking north along Gracechurch Street in the City of London during the latter half of the 20th century. This steep, high-angle perspective looks directly down onto the bustling junction where Gracechurch Street meets King William Street and Eastcheap. The road is busy with iconic red double-decker buses, including a route 47, black Austin taxis, and various commercial lorries. On the left, the ornate facade of the Bank of West Africa Limited is visible, featuring classical architectural details and workers on scaffolding. The sidewalks are busy with city workers and shoppers, capturing the fast-paced atmosphere of the financial district in the early sixties.
