The twin lift shafts go up in the distance where a tower block of expensive flats will arise opposite Seven Sisters tube station to dominate a previously low rise urban landscape. If Cross Rail 2 is authorised the house in the foreground and all its neighbours on that side of the road will be demolished for a Seven Sisters Crossrail station entrance. Odd that Cross Rail 2 is proposed to tunnel under the route of the abandoned above ground and built upon Seven Sisters to Palace Gates line that once started just behind the trees.
