We are not Amused!
A bronze statue to Queen Victoria, in Katharine Street, Croydon.
I must have walked past this statue hundreds of times without realising the potential. The same might have happened, today, had I not been coming out of the Clocktower Café just as the clock was striking four. In the background is the tower of Croydon Town Hall.

Suffolk House, College Road
By Raglan Squire and Partners, 1960-61, early on in Croydon's development.
At the time of my visit new developments were afoot in Croydon despite this block, and many others I saw, advertising office space to let.
Between the 1950s and the 1970s Croydon experienced a burst of commercial development unparalleled anywhere else in the country. The impetus was provided by the Croydon Corporation Act of 1956 which gave Croydon Council powers to develop land in the borough. A combination of improved roads, government incentives to relocate from, and Croydon's proximity to, central London, and lower rents attracted employers in their droves. By 1970 about six million square feet of office space had been provided in central Croydon. Development has continued since, but at a much slower rate. From a distance the skyline is impressive (the nearest this country comes to Manhattan), but the problem is that few of the buildings are of architectural merit.
