The familiarity of empty streets as a result of lockdown has drawn attention to the reality that after more than a year of living with COVID, London urgently needs to be revitalised.
So the news that Camden and King’s Cross is to receive a New York City-style makeover – with a section of disused railway to be transformed into a £35million floating park – is welcome. Modelled on New York City’s High Line, it will include green spaces, seating areas, cafés and cultural spaces. Indeed, the lead landscape architect for Camden scheme, James Corner, is the man behind New York’s project.

Mother and daughter Shirley Rodriguez and Victoria Rivas have fulfilled their dream of opening a spa in Arima. - Ayanna Kinsale
Shirley Rodriguez, a 43-year-old Venezuelan and her eldest daughter, Victoria Rivas, 17, put together their ideas and experiences and decided to open a spa that is attracting attention in Arima.
Rodríguez – born in Barquisimeto, Lara state, and Rivas in Puerto Ordaz, Bolívar state, Venezuela – became connected to TT thanks to Rivas s father, Jose Felix, who had a Trinidadian mother who lived in Venezuela for many years.
The two arrived in TT for the first time six years ago, when they decided to come on vacation for Rivas and her younger sister, Valeria, to visit her father and relatives, who were already back here.
