Lord Mayor is a ceremonial position. You have to be powerful to get the position though.
It's an ancient city with lots of traditions and secrets anon. Some of the traditions are deliberately obscured as well to the layman. Watch the video for an introduction to it all.

The Grand Lodge is not in the City anon. It's in Covent Garden at 60 Great Queen St, London WC2B 5AZ. Apart from that you are pretty much spot on.
You may find the old plans for Christopher Wrens London interesting. It never got built after the Great Fire of London but see if you can spot a key similar to the one in the Vatican City.
Look for the Tau/Masonic triangle in the map and then match it up with the modern day map of London and you will find a nice little secret. Nothing major, just an Easter egg.
Yep. London has a lot of secrets. It's a fascinating city. See my post about Wrens design for the Great Fire. The Masonic triangle or Tau. I'm pretty sure the triangle is over the current Bloomberg building and the Temple of Mithras, which was apparently lost and only discovered after the Second World War. Fascinating. Wren must have known about it.
