Isabel Street has changed a bit since this street party five years ago (and you might need to wear more clothes on Saturday!). Lots of people wanted our streets to feel more welcoming all year round, and were prepared to do something about it. Links with local schools and tenants' and residents' groups, funds from the Freemans development, and Lambeth plans to improve local areas, all combined to achieve a zebra crossing outside Reay school, a 20mph speed limit, new planting around the area (not yet completed), secure cycle parking for residents, and the new Van Gogh Walk. A neighbourhood to be proud of - and who knows what the new ownership of Van Gogh's house might lead to.
