A sign on a building across the road from the building works reads, Stead & Simpson Ltd For Reliable Boots And Shoes. Overhead shots show men working on the roof. There is a shot of the half-completed building and of workers returning home for the day. Most are riding bicycles or walking. There are buses, cars and lorries passing in the street below. The final shot is of the completed building.
