Thanks for all the comments! Bob, that little street sign above the taxi says "Hans Place", which is three streets west of Sloan St. Harrods is a few hundred meters further west. Looking at the area on Google Maps, I have no idea where I was standing.
I included the taxi for "flavour", and the car in the lower left corner for its brake lights--that part of the pic seemed very dark. By the time I changed lenses to get just the buildings, the clouds had rolled in again.
