Rowley Way, part 1

The famous Rowley Way, in the Alexandra and Ainsworth estate in north west London. I used to cycle past this on the my route to work up Abbey Road. Designed in 1968, work started in 1972 and finished 1978. This is one of my favourite streets in London. It reminds me of a 1970s, pre Star Wars sci-fi film. Like Rollerball filmed in the new concrete buildings of Munich or Logans Run shot in downtown Dallas. It has been the location of quite a few movies and TV programmes, from the Sweeney to Prime Suspect.
It has a definite community feel, with exhibitions and talks on the design and history of the estate on at the residents association.
