Brick Lane E1

Having spent 18 years working in Hackney and Shoreditch Brick Lane became a favourite place. It's a melting pot of curious creations and cultural phenomena, a microcosm of fresh and unique styles, smells and sounds. Once associated with the poorest slums of East London, and favoured spot for Jack the Ripper murders, Brick Lane is now a vibrant cultural, ethnic and artistic hub.
