Transcript of Piccadilly circus
London
Piccadilly Circus is the most famous london square and crossroad. In the middle there is fountain with statuette of Anteros, in one of the buildings witch are surrounding square - huge light advertisements. Nearby is Trocadero too – entertainement centre, witch has cinemas, restaurants, shops and casinos. When you’d be there, you should see districts: Soho and China Town.
At the start of the 1960s, it was determined that the Circus needed to be redeveloped to allow for greater traffic flow. In 1962.
The Holford plan is referenced in the short-form documentary film "Goodbye, Piccadilly", produced by the Rank Organisation in 1967. Piccadilly Circus has since escaped major redevelopment, apart from extensive ground-level pedestrianisation around its south side in the 1980s.
Piccadilly Circus is the most beautiful at night, when the square is full of lights, neons and advertisements like: Coca-Cola, Sanyo, TDK and McDonald’s.
