Allonby House, Stepney
When built, this would have been a better place to live than any of the realistic alternatives that would have existed for tenants at the time. But now, it just looks like a grim place to live.

Former pub, Stepney
The shuttered building is on the corner of Durham Row (right - the terrace is listed http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-205930-3-19-stepney ) and Whitehorse Road. Can anyone identify the symbol on the upper left side? It appears to be a pair of wings on either side of a tower, with the date 1757.

Stepney: Limehouse Fields Estate, E14
Stepney suffered greatly during the Blitz, and there was a desperate need in the immediate post-war years not only to re-house people whose homes had been destroyed but also to cater for demobilized service personnel returning home to civilian life. The Limehouse Fields Estate was one of the main developments to solve these problems. Three different types of housing can be seen here. The nearest, and somewhat unusually green, houses are Donoghue Cottages, built in 1949. Further down the road, which is Galsworthy Avenue, are some more recent (1990s?) houses, while in the distance is a towerblock, probably dating from the 1960s.
