Elwin Street E2
This row of terraced Victorian houses in Elwin Street were just one of many in the East End which were threatened with demolition in the 1970s. Like several streets nearby, they survived. They were renovated and sitting tenants were given the opportunity to buy them for £8,000. Now they are worth £350,000.

Tea Bar, Calvert Avenue, Shoreditch, London
When Syd Tothill, a British soldier who had been gassed during WWI, returned to civilian life in 1919 he used £117 of his invalidity pension to pay for the construction of a top quality mahogany tea stall with fine etched windows and gleaming brass fittings. Mains electricity was added in 1922, hooked up to an adjoining lamp post, and the old water churn that previously stood at the rear of the stall was superseded by a supply of water from the mains. In spite of it being referred to as “a coffee bar,” which was considered a classier description for this type of stall, Syd’s most popular beverages were, it seems, tea, cocoa and “Bovex” (a “poor man’s version of Bovril”). In the 1960s, when Calvert Avenue was resurfaced, Syd’s stall could not be moved on account of the mains connections and so kerbstones were placed around it instead. The stall still operates from Monday to Fridays. See also: https://spitalfieldslife.com/2010/05/12/syds-coffee-stall-shoreditch-high-st/
