The building to which you refer (corner Mosley St No1 Grey St) was never a bank in my time working in Newcastle but it was the Leeds PBS in 1965.
Opposite corner Dean St Mosley St was the NP Bank (later Nat West) and is a good example of how to change the use of a building (now a restaurant) without destroying its character.
Re footfall. The bottom end of Grey St (below the Turks) was never very busy with pedestrians in the sixties given that so many of the buildings didn't house retail premises by then.
But it remains one of the grandest streets in the UK and something for which to thank our forbears!!
