citylikeyou — Parkland Walk — London by Phil Sharp

London / Park

This uninspiring sounding place is a disused railway line that runs along the roofline from Finsbury Park to Highgate. A great place to excerise and escape.

Address
Parkland Walk, Finsbury Park, London, United Kingdom

I’m a London based freelance portrait and commercial photographer. I was born in London but grew up in the new town of Milton Keynes then spent most of my 20’s getting high and having a ball in the old town of Northampton. I was lucky enough to spend a couple of years in New York City and now I’m back in my beloved London.

London / Park

I felt in love with the giant glasshouse, it's a great place to draw.

London / Cafe

Serving dangerously good cocktails and boasting one of south London’s most innovative menus, this amazing place to eat, drink and hang out with friends is housed in an equally spectacular architectural salvage shop.

London / Shop

The fantastical shop front for the children’s literacy charity, the Ministry of Stories – which offers one-to-one writing tuition for local kids. The shop sells ‘Bespoke and Everyday Items for the Living, Dead and Undead’, including Thickest Human Snot, Compacted Earwax, and Tinned Fear. (And all their products make perfect presents for humans.) All proceeds go to the charity.

London / Cafe

I couldn't decide which coffee shop to feature so here's the first, Store Street Espresso. It's right round the corner from work and a great place to chill out at lunch time and get that kick for the afternoon. Compared with the other independent coffee shops in the area (Wild & Wood/Lantana/Tapped & Packed) the interior's minimal and light which is great. Anyway coffee's really good and so is the food.

London / Bar

My friend Guillaume opened the swankiest rooftop in London that still feels like a house party. Louie is a French-Creole restaurant, live jazz music venue and oyster bar too.
