A Building Exploratory Project for High Street 2012

The People’s Archive project aims to create a resource for the people who live, work and play around Bow Road. We are gathering the reminiscences, stories and opinions of local people in order to create an archive of this remarkable part of east London. Bow Road forms part of ‘High Street 2012’, the 6km route from the City of London to the Olympic Park.

You can follow our progress here on the blog, and get involved by voting for your favourite building on High Street 2012 on the Peoples' Favourite Buildings website.

The project continues...


Over the next few months, we plan to bring together the groups that we have worked with, in additional discussion and photography sessions. We hope to facilitate sessions where the older people and the young people we have worked with meet and share their experiences of Bow Road and the project so far. We’re sure that this type of intergenerational meeting will provide a rich experience.

We will update this blog with information and pictures about these sessions once they take place. In the meantime, you may want to follow our other activities along High Street 2012, by visiting the Peoples Panorama blog.
