I note you still haven't told us which "unique shopping outlets and
generally architecturally interesting and sound buildings" are kikely to be
demolished.


The weather has been a bit naff lately to get some pictures of the
buildings that will be demolished to create enough room for the trams to
operate.

An unfortunate choice of word there. I hope you meant would (if the
tramway ever gets built).

Dam keyboard - it never understands what I wish to say and then has the nerve
to leave the odd word or two out, quite apart from the fact it can't spell.

Meanwhile, a start of the Lido junction segment has started with a web page of
the junction as it was in the summer of 2002. The page can be found at
http://www.tfwl.org.uk/lido2.html - this isn't the segment of the site I
wanted to work on right now but there does seem to be a lot of interest in
this particular junction.

The text relating to buildings is being prepared now. Any one care to add
some captions to the pictures to lessen my load a bit?

6) as (5)

7) Lido Junction looking south down Northfield Avenue. Dean Gardens on
right. Gosai cinema in the centre; this was previously The Lido, from
which the junction took its name.

in the background.

10) Lido Junction looking west along West Ealing Broadway.

11) Looking west along West Ealing Broadway towards Lido Junction,


With the Lido cinema now demolished, let's hope that it retains the
name.

Note: The road up from the south is often misnamed Northfields Avenue;
the correct name is Northfield Avenue.

You're welcome. Would you please amend Note 1 to read

1) With the Lido cinema now demolished, let's hope that the junction
retains the name Lido
(if you agree with the sentiment, that is).
