 Shoreditch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shoreditch is 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north east of Charing Cross and is located at the point where five postcode areas converge.
The area declined along with the textile industry and from the end of the 19th Century to the 1960s, Shoreditch was a by-word for crime, prostitution and poverty.
Today Shoreditch is a busy and popular district, noted for its large number of galleries, bars and media businesses (although the prostitution and, to a lesser degree, the textile industry still remain).

 3am Music: SO MUCH FOR THE UNDERGROUND
My flat is situated near Whitechapel tube station on the East London Line, immediately adjacent to both Jubilee Street (home of the anarchist social club founded by Rudolph Rocker in the late 1890s) and Sidney Street (scene of the 1911 siege of the same name by Russian anarchists).
The station, actually at the north end of Brick Lane among the Indian eateries and try-hards' bars that have become the tourist cash cow for an otherwise deprived borough, shares its name with the now casually-derided locale to the north of the City of London.
Shoreditch try-hards stand cheek-by-jowl with middle aged suited types from the City, who've probably made their way north to see what the Evening Standard hype is all about.

Old Street tube station is off your route (at the intersecetion of Old St and City Road) but is the main station for Shoreditch, and is in a slightly frightening subterranean area with a number of businesses in it.
If you come out of Liverpool Station and turn left on Shoreditch High Street (you will pass the Truman Brewery on the right) about a 10 minute walk past a petrol station, there are a couple of lanes on the left, which go under a rail under pass.
Another possibility might be that at the top end of Brick Lane, near Shoreditch underground station, there are the Bishopsgate railway arches, which have been used for a variety of purposes, but I don't think there's a health club thereabouts.
