Cromer Street
Cromer Street is a road in King's Cross in central London, England. It starts in the west at Judd Street, then goes east, ending at Gray's Inn Road. It gave access from Gray's Inn Road to Greenland Place and a bowling green.
==History==
Cromer Street was formerly called Lucas Street and was renamed in 1818. In the earlier 1840s, it was described as being occupied by a class of poor 'small tradesmen and artisan lodgers' in densely crowded lodgings. On it is Church of the Holy Cross, which was built by Joseph Peacock and dedicated in 1888.
105 houses were built in the street in the early 19th century, but it has largely been rebuilt and consists of over 1,000 council and housing properties, mostly pre-1919 railway tenements of fine architectural qualities on the north side, and on the south a "striking sequence of nine 6-storey slabs of flats of 1949 - 1951 by Hening & Chitty...They were singled out by Pevsner in 1952 as some of the first good post-war flats" The area has suffered deprivation and crime and〔The Buildings of England.
