21st Century
On 10 July 2009 a fire broke out on Dean Street. Two fire-fighters suffered minor injuries, nobody else was hurt. The building that caught fire was gutted.
The start of a dramatic change to Dean Street began in March 2010 with the commencement of demolition of an entire block (Great Chapel Street / Dean Street) in preparation for a western entrance to the new Crossrail station at Tottenham Court Road which will have major impact on the area.

Famous quotes containing the word century:
“When the bond of love broke,
the respect born of affection withered,
good feelings fled,
and that man walked before me
like any other,
Good Friend,
I imagine all this,
think on days gone by
and wonder why
my heart hasn’t cracked
into a hundred bits.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
