Do they really rebuild stations in this day and age without stepless

They did at Liverpool Street.

Which rebuild is that, surely not the 1991 version?

I presume so.

Although it does of course have escalators (which seems to be regarded
as stepless these days) up to the street from the main concourse.

Go on from there towards Liverpool Street and what do you meet? A set of
steps (down)!

The only level access provided was via Broadgate but I think that is blocked
by Crossrail works at present. It's a helluva way round to get to Old Broad
Street.



There's a ramp at the Eldon St. entrance, isn't there? The one leading
down to the left in http://goo.gl/maps/CW8al?

I said it was a helluva way round. I checked today. You can't get to
Liverpool Street that way without a very long detour because the area in
front of Broadgate is a Crossrail site. Part of the closure is visible in
the picture.
