The regeneration of East London is going pretty well.
Recovered old buildings have so much potential.

That area is actually in South East London, if you were commenting on my post that is! Although East London does have some great regeneration projects too!
South East London does sometimes get a bad reputation, but hopefully some of these photo projects will show otherwise! Brockley SE4 - South London Brockley is a conservation area in South East London, Wedged between Lewisham and Greenwich, there are streets of beautiful georgian and victoria architecture, as well as a strong painting community. The proximity on the river to Canary wharf can create amazing juxtapositions. image hosted on flickr ![]() image hosted on flickr ![]() and even the square mile! image hosted on flickr ![]() Along with the area being home to a number of churches. image hosted on flickr ![]() image hosted on flickr ![]() Recently a strong sense of an art community has began to make its mark on the area. image hosted on flickr ![]() There are some real hidden gems, such as this beautiful French Stone Villa built between 1771 - 1773. image hosted on flickr ![]() image hosted on flickr ![]() and others.. image hosted on flickr ![]() image hosted on flickr ![]() Being a conservation area it has a lot of green spaces, one of the biggest is Hilly Fields which has an incredible view of the docklands. image hosted on flickr ![]() Flickr |

I once stayed at a hotel on Piccadilly Circus. Unfortunately, it's closed now.
