Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tottenham: The Broadwater Farm Estate, N17. The estate was built between 1967 and 1973 in a style designed by Le Corbusier where no dwellings were at ground level because of the high water table of the Moselle River which is culverted under the estate. The warren of first floor concrete walkways offered opportunities for crime and anti-social behaviour and the consequent bad reputation of the estate long before the riot of 6 October 1985 which resulted in the murder of PC Keith Blakelock. Further information on the history of the estate can be found on Haringey Council's website here http://www.haringey.gov.uk/index/community_and_leisure/neighbourhoods/broadwaterfarm/historyofbroadwaterfarm.htm The mural is on the end wall of Rochford block and features Martin Luther King, Bob Marley, Mahatma Gandhi, and John Lennon. See 235530 for another photo of the estate in an adjacent grid square.
