The street is made up mainly of offices with a parade of small shops on the south side between the eastern end of South Crescent and Gower Street. It also houses The University of Law's London Bloomsbury campus.

The former Bloomsbury Petrol Station on the corner of Ridgmount Street was subject to an award-winning redevelopment.[1]
