To commemorate Re:Definition 2010’s
tribute to East London, Bianca Manu explores how East London train station,
Dalston Junction is putting the local area back on the map.
One of the most prominent changes in East
London aside from the preparations for Olympics, is arguably the re-opening of
Dalston Junction overground. The station which first opened in November 1865
as part of the North London Railway "City Extension" to Broad Street
gained notoriety.
