The famous Art Deco parapet entrance of Walthamstow Greyhound Stadium was built in 1932. The grand official opening was on 15th April 1933 in which the aviator Amy Johnson took part. The final race was in August 2005 and the site is being developed for housing. For a fuller history of Walthamstow Stadium see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walthamstow_Stadium
