New Council Housing Development Greenfield Road N15
The simple right angled geometric blocks (nicely contrasting with the circular shaped tree) owe much to the Bauhaus School of Design. The building also reflects a public and private corporate style much used in the 1930's-1950's of a longer lower recessed frontage between larger taller end blocks. Reminiscent of Hornsey Town Hall only a couple of miles away. Doubtless the flat roof will cause later problems but for now a pleasing piece of public building. Not only not out of keeping with its surroundings but a relief from the tyranny of bland high rise developments in the Borough.

Roslyn Road to Southey Road Closed Alleyway
This alleyway was closed and abandoned some years ago on the grounds that it had encouraged criminality and anti-social behaviour. Since closure it has filled up with litter and a buddleia tree has taken over this entrance on Roslyn Road. Just behind the tree inside the alleyway there remains a modern lamppost that no longer works.

Roslyn Road cloudscene
Looking down Roslyn Road to the railway arches on which sits Seven Sisters station. Overhead the odd shaped cloud is, I believe, called cirrus vertebratus. It looks like a fluffy insect about to land.

Brunswick Park N15
This is the site of the old Seven Sisters station on the branch line to Palace Gates. It stood on curving brick arches like those of the surviving station in the background. The ghastly/ghostly tower block arises in the background. See also Image

Brunswick Road N15 rooftops
The prosaic backside of the buildings that front West Green Road contrast nicely with the beauty of the sky scene. It reminds me of the line about the city's ripped backside from Iggy Pop's song 'The Passenger'.

True Craft pub West Green Road London N15
Up until only 7 years ago this pub was called simply the West Green although often it was referred to as the West Green Tavern. It was a pub that served almost exclusively the local African-Caribbean population. Now it has been made over and serves a hipster clientele as gentrification moves on apace in an area that once had affordable housing but now does not. In this process I always wonder where the displaced populations go.
