A greener recovery

Pedestrianisation would be great. Some dubious behaviours round there at the moment.

If the shops and flats are happy about it, we could just block it with planters and see what happens.

A bloke on my street puts cones on 'his' parking spot every morning when he heads to work and that seems to work.

I see a group of local guerrilla gardeners calling themselves The Guardians of Stroud Green - including one of our local Haringey Councillors - have started a voluntary project to clean up and plant out the SGR/Upper Tollington corner outside Bacchus, with the aim of 'rewilding' it for community use. Seems like a worthwhile project and perhaps a jumping off point for pedestrianising and reclaiming it as a 'green'. Here's their Instagram page (hope it works):

Should this get a separate thread with it's own title - Greening Stroud Green?

Cool.
The name makes them sounds like they should be wearing military style uniforms.

...or Guardians of the Galaxy cosplay.

This is a cool idea. Though I spot Cllr Eldridge Culverwell among the crowd so I partly wonder whether this is a party political thing? On other hand one of the local Stalinist street drinkers is there too.

I want them on the W7 late at night brandishing hoes and trowels to protect the virgin maidens of Stroud Green, Crouch End, Hornsey and Muswell Hill.

The guardians might well outnumber the “virgin maidens”.

Even when double counted, tautologically

Pleonastically, even.
