I just came across an interesting article at Feed about London and the descreasing evidence of its Victorian past. Pretty interesting if you’ve ever been here. No one would ever recognize Waterloo as a Victorian era station anymore… The tube stop is clean, silver, and futuristic, and the interior looks like nothing so much as an airport. I admired it when the new look was unveiled, but I’m starting to see the sadness inherent in “cleaning” up history’s traces.
