Streatham Street is a street in the London district of Bloomsbury, running between New Oxford Street and Great Russell Street. In the 19th century, it was on the border of the disreputable rookery of St Giles, and so became the location for new accommodation which reformers planned would replace the slums.Parnell House was built in the 1850s by Henry Roberts. Originally constructed for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Classes. The building was designed to make slum living a thing of the past. Whereas whole families had lived together in one room, now they could enjoy a more spacious living space. The Streatham Street apartments were the first multi level domestic building in the world. Subsequent buildings were erected by George Peabody and Streatham Street was taken over by the Peabody Trust and modernised in later years.

Helter Skelter Publishing is a British publisher specialising in rock music. Helter Skelter was founded as a bookshop by Sean Body in 1995, who specifically chose the location of 4, Denmark Street as it had previously housed Regent Sounds Studios, which had recorded early work by the Rolling Stones. The shop specialised in books and fanzines covering Bob Dylan, which at one point accounted for 40% of its sales. It also sold sheet music and music-related artwork. Despite predictions it would not appeal to a wide market and be "a boys' anorak paradise", a report in The Independent suggested that 20% of customers were women.Although the shop was popular, it was unable to cope with a 40% rise in shop rates, and it closed at the end of 2004. Body died of leukemia in April 2008. However, the name survives as a publishing company.
