Crouch End
This building, alongside an abandoned section of the Northern Heights line at Crouch End (where I live), was intended to be an electricity substation for the extension of Northern Line tube trains from Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace but the scheme was never completed and the line closed in 1954. The building is now a community centre, seen here during an afternoon stroll from Stroud Green to Highgate along the trackbed, now the Parkland Walk footpath, on 1st April 2021. (The top storey is a recent addition, as is that piece on the side, see my pic (image 72977) from December 2010.)
