ELYSIAN MEADOWS

by Harry Mellor

Meandering above the streets of Limehouse, Elysian Meadows. A land pier covered from end to end in vegetation, greenhouses and allotments, the smells of fruits and flowers filling the air. A place to find peace and solitude from day-to-day life above the mess of the ‘Monstro-city,’ slowly destroying all greenery in the city. Food is grown by and for the local community on a semi-commercial scale, but still with the charm and romance of traditional allotments and floral gardens. Bringing greenery back to the city and reducing food poverty in London’s most deprived borough. A social condenser for Limehouse.
