Prologue - 8 million stories in a naked city #TheHeygateProject

Is a lil project I started working on a couple of months ago. The Heygate estate is Europe's biggest abandoned housing estate it's very similar to the projects in queens New York, it's located in south London in case any szers wanna pay a visit. The estate is currently being demolished as part of the regeneration of the Elephant and Castle area. It was home to more than 3,000 people. The Heygate is well known for being one of the starkest examples of post-war urban decay in the United Kingdom. Its notoriety has led to it being used frequently as a filming location for music videos and movies. Films have included Attack the Block, Shank, Harry Brown and The Bill TV series. also High profile music videos, including "Hung Up" by Madonna and "Love Don't Let Me Go (Walking Away)" by David Guetta have also been filmed on the estate. #A169 #GrimeyWorld #London #streetphotography #ForTheLoveOfBlackAndWhite #TheArtOfBlackAndWhite #ColorSplash #awesomeshots #LifeShotS
