Built precariously into a tube station
in W12, these snaps record The Metro before it was comprehensively
destroyed internally in July 2002. We present it here on a typically,
er, 'quiet' day with suicidally grim views out onto the Goldhawk
Road, poised sauce bottles and net curtains rotting in the secondhand
daylight. Note the old 'Lunches' sign which seems to remain in
a few older cafes round the city. Apparently very popular with
Japanese hipsters, this has appeared in a recent Tokyo handbook
directing tourists to London's cheap-eats hotspots. |
