Searching for something else, I encountered a photo of my bus stop, in 1939 and 2004. Slight error in the caption, the post box has moved a few yards to the right out of shot.
I keep meaning to explore the Urban75 website in a lot more detail.
Another view of near where I live
There's the Lost Pubs of Brixton When I was Town Hall Ward councillor I always fancied doing a pub crawl of all the pubs in my ward. I reckoned it would be Town Hall Social club (closed), Branksome Arms (yuppy flats), Hope and Anchor, Duke of Cornwall (closing or closed), Royal Oak (closed), Red Lion (now a Caribbean restaurant), Prince of Wales, Waggon and Horses (closed), Hand in Hand, Sultan, Telegraph (trendy nightclub), George IV (trendy nightclub), Windmill, White Horse (trendy nightclub), Hope (became a vodka bar, dunno what it is now, I haven't been past in years), Fridge (trendy nightclub) and Mass/Crypt (trendy nightclub, restaurant, and opera company).
That's responsible local politics for you.
Being that I'm not a trendy nightclubber, you can imagine it would be somewhat less exciting now. Besides, the ward boundaries and name changed. And I'm semi-detached from the political process; although a chance encounter with a senior local councillor the other day conformed to me that my political instincts are as finely tuned as ever...!
