| Might start a new thread for this but check out the before and after of Leyton high street, the before reminds me a bit of certain parts of churchfield road, but wow what a difference:- https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2160777/London-2012-Olympics-Leyton-High-Road-gets-new-look-thats-Notting-Hill-EastEnders.html Wonder what it would take to get something like this happening in Acton? The Leyton one was funded by the local council off the back of the olympics. Obviously consent and agreement of shop/flat owners but only takes a few to get onboard and the rest (hopefully) follow. The uplift in community spirit, attracting business and tourism to the area and regeneration of the area would be huge, and off the back of the redeveloped Oaks centre would really help put Acton on the map. |
