From St Pancras De… |
Hmm, I was at the new station this week. After all the hype I expected rather a lot more – most of the shops in the ‘Undercroft’ are still just hoardings, and the front of the station is still an utter mess of skips and portacabins as they work feverishly on the new hotel and luxury apartments.
Even if I had the cash I still wouldn’t want to live there though… the drunks, hobos and ladies of the night are still very much in evidence around Kings Cross, and I can’t see that changing. After all, where are they going to go? The Angel? Not if the upper-middle classes can help it… Camden? It already has it’s fare share of denizens. I guess it’s a matter of just watch this space, or should that be watch this empty shop-front??
