The Fifty Pence Piece Building

Nice to see that the "Fifty Pence Piece" building by East Croydon station is getting a much needed face lift and clean up.

A step in the right direction.

Unfit Dwellings

The newly elected Croydon council has quite a task on its hands to improve the quality of the infrastructure the borough.

The National Statistics website notes that in April 2004 in Croydon 10,172 (7.3%) of dwellings were classed as unfit. This compares with 'unfitness' levels of 5.8% in the London region, and 4.8% in England as a whole.
