City Road and Who's on It
City Road is a mixed stretch. Office buildings, residential blocks, the Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Trust — one of the world’s leading specialist eye hospitals — sits onCity Road and draws staff and visitors from across London every day. Further north, the road transitions into more residential territory as it approaches the EC1R boundary.
The surrounding streets — Bath Street, Micawber Street, Radnor Street — have a mix of older housing stock and newer developments. People who live here are close enough to the City to commute easily, and they tend to dress accordingly.
Good suits. Work coats. Garments that get used regularly and need proper care. That’s what we see coming in from this direction.
