English: fotostrasse.com/statue-of-lenin-in-london/#.WZ6awZOg-28
Not that many people know that London almost had a housing project named after Lenin. The building was designed by a Russian architect, Berthold Lubetkin, and it was supposed to be called Lenin Court. All of this happened in the early 1940s, but the naming idea didn’t last long. When the building was completed, in 1954, the Cold War has started, and Lenin Court didn’t become a reality. But the statue of Lenin that was part of a memorial built in a square nearby can still be found in London. During my last visit to London, I had the goal of looking for odd things. Places that most people don’t even know that exist in the British capital. I found the first drinking fountain, the smallest police station in Great Britain and I manage to visit the only statue of Lenin in London. And, when I started researching about this statue, a new world opened itself to me with a lot of things I had no idea about it. Let me share with you some of this things. |
