Title: F.A.O Tikay Post by: booder on February 16, 2011, 08:22:41 PM A disused tube station is up for sale in London for the bargain price of £180,000 ($290,000). Formerly Shoreditch Underground Station, the 1,600 sq. ft. single-level property would make an unusual home for someone willing to put in some elbow grease—and willing to tolerate living immediately next to train tracks. Rooms include a ticketing office, lobby, plant area, and a toilet.

Every time I drive past it now I shed a tear of sadness, it's beautiful. The line is now closed, though. |
