Date1966Reference NumberPhoto 07-357DescriptionSite of Piccadilly Arcade. Foundations being constructed, 1966. Caption reads: 'A view taken from the rear of John Court's Devonport Road premises looking towards Grey Street shows preliminary stages of work on the new arcade of 19 shops. Some folk have speculated on the wisdom of providing more shops when more than a dozen and a considerable amount of office space have been empty in the city for a long time. Reversing the previous trend, however, the new arcade will help to concentrate the business area with obvious advantage to the shopper, apart from its value in providing modern buildings. It is probable that more shops will become vacant as existing firms move in towards the city centre - this is part of the price of growing up'.
