Fifth Avenue, Kensal Rise
This is part of the Queen's Park estate, developed in the 1870s/80s by the Artizans', Labourers' and General Dwellings Company, with tree-lined roads and an area set aside for recreation. Gardening was encouraged and there was to be provision for an institute, cooperative stores, coal depot, dairy farm, baths, and reading rooms, but no public house. Avenues numbered from 1 to 6 were laid out leading north from Harrow Road and south to the canal, and connected by long cross streets. (Information from British History Online.)

Public library, Harrow Road, W10
Looking across from the canal towpath. Canal and road are separated by a narrow shrubbery with path, called 'Harrow Road Open Space'. This must be one of the smallest open spaces about.

Waiting for a No. 18 bus
This heron was just standing there beside the Harrow Road. Surprising until you realise that with a couple of flaps it could be beside the Grand Union Canal. In Image this bird's position is just on the road side of the railings.

Queens Park Public Library, Harrow Road
This library, designed by the architects Karslake and Mortimer, was opened in 1890, on the corner of Harrow Road and Fourth Avenue. It was Paddington's only Public Library until 1923 when a small library was finally opened in Hatherly Grove. It is seen here from the towpath of the Grand Union Canal.

Queens Park Public Library
This maybe doesn't add a lot to the images at http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=29722877 , but the reflection in the Grand Union Canal appealed to me.
