These buildings did not exist in 1948, presumably lost during war action. The area between the Lewis's building the Piccadilly Gardens is now open, with tram tracks and trees.

For many years this was the Woolworths Building, but it never recovered from a serious fire and closed shortly afterwards. The ground floor became an amusement arcade. In 2012 a pedestrian was hurt when an upper floor window fell off the uncared for building.

This is The Shakespeare pub. ‘The building was created in 1923 by W. Johnson and Sons and much of it is mock timber framing. However, some of the carvings and other ornamentations came from a building that was demolished in Chester and are probably 17th Century.’ From manchesterhistrory.net
