Camden Association of Street Properties
Phoenix Road runs through the middle of Somers Town, connecting Euston Station and Saint Pancras Station, and running past the Crick Institute.
It is commonly used by people walking between the two stations, and will probably get busier after the upgrades to Euston Station.
It is fair to say that some parts of the route could do with a makeover – but what should they do? Have your say!
Residents in Cecil Rhodes House have voted to rename the building Park View House, after the building’s views over St Pancras Gardens.

Cecil Rhodes is a controversial figure, to say the least, these days. He believed in expanding the British Empire, and that white Europeans were the “supreme race”. He was Prime Minster of the Cape Colony (now South Africa), and the country of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) was named after him. He founded the De Beers diamond company to exploit Africa’s mineral wealth, and he established the Rhodes Scholarship. A statue of him in Oxford is to be taken down this year after Black Lives Matter protests last year.
According to this article in the Camden New Journal, 500 healthy staff at UCLH will take part in a trial of a Covid-19 vaccine. It will try to see whether healthy people can be protected from coronavirus by the vaccine.
Test samples will be analysed at the Francis Crick Institute in Somers Town.
We wish everyone all the best.

I’m sure there are similar responses from other neighbourhoods in Camden. Otherwise, look to the Council’s website:
