"and inner East London /Lea valley"In a recent thread here, somone commented that the Liverpool St-Enfield Town national rail line seemed threatening, in the Tottenham-Edmonton area. The recent IKEA midnight riot was in Edmonton! I can't speak from personal experience, since I haven't been there for years - Edmonton just seems ordinary, on the surface. It's not 'inner East London' though it is 'Lea Valley'. "the walk from Kings Cross to Kings Cross Thameslink via the street -is now - at least in daylight hours - massively better than it used to be" Agreed. The shops on either side of Pentonville Road are being renovated (they were mostly empty) along with the floors above them, which I guess are going to be apartments. It's part of a clean-up operation for the Kings Cross area in advance of the opening of the Eurostar terminus there in 2007. Of course, if St Pancras Thameslink station gets finished, Kings Cross Thameslink station will close, and passengers transferring won't need to walk along Pentonville Road anyway! |
