Greenman Street, Islington
The building seen here, on the south side of Greenman Street, is part of the Peabody Trust's Islington Estate. Peabody housing was the idea of American philanthropist George Peabody who moved to London and set about tackling the poverty he saw there. This block dates from 1865, making it one of the earliest examples; the characteristic architecture may seem rather severe to modern eyes, but this was a vast improvement on the slum accommodation that was occupied by many Victorian Londoners. Today, the Peabody Trust is a charitable institution housing about 50,000 people with estates - of varying vintages - across London.

Tibby Place, Islington
This small park on Greenman Street (off Essex Road) was once the location of Tibberton Baths - a local swimming pool. Oddly, part of the structure remains as a memorial - although I was unable to find any explanation of this at the site itself. The overall effect is distinctly surreal.

Former Carlton Cinema, Essex Road, Islington
Converted, like so many cinemas, into a bingo hall, this site closed in the early 21st century and has sat disused since. At the time of writing it is owned by an evangelical church but conversion is delayed by planning difficulties, whilst this grade II* listed building deteriorates to the extent that it is now on the official At Risk register.

Former cinema in Essex Road
This clearly dates from when all things Egyptian were in vogue following the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922. See also https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6980754
