'like' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'the new drome at central greenwich' is the wordplay.
'the new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'central' indicates the central letters.
The middle letter of 'greenwich' is 'n'.
'drome' with letters rearranged gives 'moder'.
'moder'+'n'='MODERN'
