I live
in the Fitzrovia neighborhood in central London. Fitzrovia is near the West End
but also partly in Camden and the city of Westminster between Marylebone and
Bloomsbury. Just taking a walk around
you will notice that the neighborhood consist of residential, business, retail,
education, and healthcare. Fitzrovia is
considered a bohemian area because of writers such as Virginia Woolf once
called it home. Portland Hospital for Women and Children is located on Great Portland Street near the tube station. The BBC is just a few buildings away down Great Portland
Street. MTV Networks Europe,
Nickelodeon, and CNN are just a few other networks with headquarters located throughout
the neighborhood. Many celebrities call this area home. The people of Fitzrovia range in age from young adult –middle
aged and they all have didn’t taste in dress. On any given day you can see men
in business suits, kids in school uniform, teens in the latest fashion, and
fashion forward business woman. The
pictures below range from residential to business, and parks. I believee they are the perfect example of what the neighborhood represents

Restaurants and construction on Clevand Street
Restaurants where Clipstone and Clevanland Street meet.
Also if you keep walking straight you will run into a park lined with gorgoues homes and a church.
