Title
Tenements in Perry's Avenue
Description
Front elevations of tenement blocks 7 & 8 Perry's Avenue (previously known as Booth Street), Spitalfields, looking south. A line of iron bollards block access to traffic and to the right of the bollards, on the corner, is 62 Princelet Street. A group of young girls and prams are visible. At the end of the passage is the external wall of a disused fur, skin dressing and dye works. The tenement blocks consisted of three four-storey blocks at right angles to Princelet Street, built in the cheapest manner possible of stock brick with stone lintels. Wooden staircases served four rooms and a service wing on each floor, and although some rooms were intercommunicating they were apparently let singly from the first. The ground level, fronting the street, contained shops. The builder's name is unknown. The buildings were demolished in 1955-56 and the area is now low rise flats.
