Descriere magazin:
With 150 outstanding color photographs,
Abandoned London presents a poignant pictorial exploration of the English capital--from forgotten railways lines and underpasses to lost industrial places, movie theaters, churches, and cemeteries.
London is both a bright, modern city with soaring skyscrapers as well as a metropolis hundreds of years old--and, despite its gleaming surface, there is another side to the city, one of secrets, dilapidation, and mystery. Wander through disused stations on the Underground; immense, ornate Victorian sewers and waterworks; crumbling but beautiful Art Deco cinemas and empty swimming pools; bombed-out churches and eerie docklands; and ruined mansions and overgrown cemeteries, all haunting relics from a time gone by. Arranged thematically from transport and industry to residential and recreational, these entries cover both the modern city and the historical metropolis. Includes: - South Kentish Underground Station, closed in 1927 - Camden\'s horse tunnels - Great Eastern Street, once a place of light industries, now finally being revived - Museum Street, Bloomsbury, with its shuttered shops - Crystal Palace Underpass, built to accommodate Victorian visitors on their way to the Crystal Palace exhibition - Sailmaker\'s Factory, Limehouse - Strand Union Workhouse - St Mary\'s Lodge, Lordship Road, Stoke Newington - Mansions, Bishop\'s Avenue - The First Class Swimming Pool Hall - Ladywell Play Tower - Regal Cinema Highams Park - Archway Methodist Central Hall - Highgate West Cemetery - Ruins of a Victorian Folly, Sydenham Hill Woods About author(s):
