A Waste Of Space
The photographs show the central island at Highbury Corner.
Note that a couple of these pictures were taken over several days and in some, workers would appear to be tidying it up.
Surely something better could be done with this green space. Walk for about ten minutes and you come to Newington Green, which is a green space with a cafe in the middle of a busy traffic interchange, that has improved immensely in recent years.
Two points.
1. One thing that needs sorting is the position of the bus stand for the 277, which is totally in the wrong place.
2. The memorial garden to those that died in the V1 attack is tucked away and might be better moved to the middle, if public were to be allowed access.
With a bit of imaginative thinking, Highbury Corner could be a green space to welcome people to the thriving Upper Street.
