EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Newcastle, as part of Gallowgate is flattened to pave the way for the new St. James Station. Taken on June 22nd, 1976, this image showcases the city's transformation during the 1970s. In this snapshot from the past, we witness a bustling urban scene being dismantled to make room for progress and modernization. The demolition work signifies a shift towards improved public transportation infrastructure with the introduction of Tyne and Wear Metro system. As rubble fills what was once a vibrant street, it serves as a poignant reminder of how cities evolve over time. The photograph also highlights St. James Station's pivotal role in connecting people across Newcastle and beyond. This major railway hub has been an integral part of travel and transport in the region for decades.
