London: The New Brixton...

An interesting story about how the once dicey down-at-its-heels Brixton has been revitalized.

Personally I liked the old Brixton too - something different but the new Brixton promises to be more of a liking to tourists - for something a bit different in London check out Brixton!

Don't worry, there are still some dicey parts of it left that you can enjoy :). Rental and house prices have certainly increased.

There are a couple of decent restaurants in the old market.

Not your average London market

Electric Avenue Market - still has a Carib look and feeling to it.

I read that with interest in the paper. But why did the author not mention the best song mention of the area…Guns of Brixton by the Clash?

David Bowie it says is the local music hero.

David Bowie is from Bromley.
