EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Boundary Street in 1901, showcasing the Hertsey and Taplow Buildings. Taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, this image is now part of the London Metropolitan Archives collection. The scene depicts a slice of urban life in Bethnal Green, within the Tower Hamlets borough. The buildings stand tall against the backdrop of an Edwardian era council estate. Flats and houses line up neatly, forming tenements that were meant to provide social housing for residents. The architectural facade exudes a sense of grandeur as it overlooks Arnold Circus, a symbol of British society at that time. This snapshot offers a glimpse into England's past, capturing both Victorian and suburban elements within its frame. As we delve deeper into this photo print, we can appreciate how it showcases not only housing estates but also public services available during that period. It serves as a reminder of how cities like London have evolved over time while still preserving their historical charm. With its rich history captured through photography, this image allows us to reflect on societal changes and appreciate the efforts made towards providing affordable housing for communities in need.
