Interacting with the neighbours.
Watch and listen the female kingfisher calling down on Hackney Marshes on the River Lea.
London being London.
The Great Gentrified Meat-grinder.
Sometimes I wonder what will remain of this place?
Just corporations offices and suburb houses sprinkled with poverty pouches, probably.
Men feeling oppressed that they can't run down schoolchildren in their broom-broom cars....pathetic...

At the same time that the building site hoardings are going up at David Adjaye’s £100 million Hackney Walk, #Hackney council calls time on Ashwin Street studio, neighbour to newly famous live music venue Cafe Oto.

Great to see such good results for nature in this Hackney Marshes project funded through our the GLA's Grow Back Greener and Rewild London Fund grants. Also highlights the importance of how we balance the use of our waterways for nature and people https://bbc.in/4i1xrxR #hackneymarshes #riverlea #hackney #london #rewilding #nature

Rewilding sees animals rebound in Hackney Marshes
#London #Transport (LT) News (No. 1 - April 6 1973) clipping:
LT proposed an express bus service from Clapton Pond to Marble Arch, reducing the usual 45-minute journey by 15 minutes. #Hackney was likely to be the first area to benefit, with #buses running at three-minute intervals during peak times and every six minutes on weekdays. The service relied on reserved bus lanes, including dedicated bus bays at stops, to avoid delays from stationary vehicles. Proposed traffic measures included all-day bus lanes and tidal lanes on busy roads. Around 30 double-decker buses were to operate, with a redesigned interior for 74 seated passengers. The success of the service depended on effective enforcement of traffic rules.
