Felix Avenue Crouch End
Image: © John Kingdon Taken: 11 Oct 2017
A grey morning in Autumn. The building to the right is a St Mungos hostel, incongruously sitting in the middle of a very trendy and expensive suburban village. The blue plaque on the building to the left of the picture commemorates the actress Lilian Harvey. Above it broods the tower of the old Hornsey Town Hall. Built upon the lines of 1920's architectural modernism, without any function now it seems as abstract as the ventilation towers on the not too distant Piccadilly Line, similarly inspired by modernist German railway building design.
