The sign's wrong. The station is Elstree & Borehamwood, not Borehamwood & Elstree.
Former Clensmore Business Park & industrial area currently being cleared (Dec 2011) to make way for residential development.
This area has been in a disused state for sometime & development will brighten it up.
Bit surprised to see that the shopping arcade between Castle Place and Rosemary Street has largely been knocked down...
Ever wake up in the morning and go outside, only to find that your steps have been demolished without your even knowing?
Yeah, I hate days like that.

Three quaint old apartment buildings built during the 1950's, are demolished to make way for a large new condominium complex that will be comparatively too large for the lot and only feet away from the busiest street this side of Edmonton.
Whyte Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
The conditions were overcast, hot, dry and dusty, contributing to the huge clouds of dust already due to construction, resulting in faded looking photos..The set superimposes a colored portion on B&W in attempts to enhance them and the drama of the event.
These homes are being cleared for the expansion of the Cincinnati Children's Hospital across the street, which will disrupt the lives of those who live in the Avondale neighborhood. These homes were largely constructed in the late 19th Century and early 20th Century, when Avondale was one of the choice neighborhoods for the city's middle class and rich. However, demographic shifts have seen many of these houses become low-income housing, and despite investment in the major institutions in the neighborhood, the residents have seen little change in their situation. The loss of the architectural heritage, along with the lack of mitigation measures for local residents, make the current situation a mess and something that needs to be changed, but there remain doubts that will happen. I have hope, however, that Avondale can be reinvigorated whilst preserving the historic buildings in the neighborhood and improving the lives of the residents in a meaningful, measurable, and noticeable way.

Built in 1931, this complex of sandstone-clad Art Deco-style buildings at the edge of Amherst, Ohio were designed by architect Frank Wooster Bail and constructed to house terminally ill tuberculosis patients in Lorain County, utilizing easy access to fresh air and ample natural light to help alleviate their symptoms, and being constructed with beautiful details and a warm-colored stone exterior. Following the advent of effective cures for tuberculosis, the building fell out of use for housing people afflicted with the disease, and became a nursing home in 1967, replacing the old Lorain County Home, with a major renovation and addition being carried out on the building in 1979. In 2015, owing to a lack of funding, the nursing home was closed, and the building has since sat vacant, with a proposal to convert it into an addiction treatment center being rejected by Lorain County voters in 2017. The building, as of Spring 2022, was being offered for sale to developers, and was undergoing asbestos abatement at the time. By November 2022, the building had been demolished.

This chimney is all that remained of the old Mansion known as Forest Hill, built in the 1880s by judge D. D. Davies for his family. The Queen Anne-style Mansion was the largest and most significant residence in this portion of the county, and is a building I built a model of, based on old photographs. The house was the home of the Davies family, whom were Welsh in ancestry, with the patriarch of the family himself being from Wales. The St. David’s-in-The-Valley Episcopal Church, located on the opposite side of the Cullowhee Valley from the Mansion, was built with funding from the Davies family in 1888, and was named after the church Judge Davies attended as a child in Wales. The house remained standing into the 20th Century, but at some point suffered a fire, evidenced by charred wood embedded in the bricks of the chimney, that destroyed it, with the ruins of the house remaining hidden in a grove of trees for decades until earlier this year, when construction began on a new housing complex for the growing student population at the adjacent Western Carolina University. The chimney became visible from the road, which drew my attention, but was knocked down in late September, with these photographs and some measurements I took being the only record of these remains before they were removed. Today, no trace remains of the Mansion, but the name lives on in the name of the surrounding subdivision and municipality, Forest Hills, and the legacy of Judge Davies, who helped fund the fledgling institution that became Western Carolina University, as well as the St. David’s Episcopal Church, which remains standing across the valley, and was recently restored.
