A slightly closer view
I spy a theatre, an Esso station and a Lion station. That is possibly the Woodland Street Theatre. It was a theater from 1924 to 1955. It has been a recording studio and there are some who are working on restoring it to a theater. The Esso is probably where the “baked and fried” restaurant in now. The Lion station is now the Margot cafe & bar according to Google.
This shot is probably at what is called 5 corners
Another view of the L&C tower.
