While our first apartment was really nice and we couldn't have been happier with the space and ammenities it had, our immediate area was less than desirable.
We were on a very busy 5 lane street with lots of bus and foot traffic. And we could hear sirens at all hours of the day and night. In addition to a tatoo parlor below us and a nightclub across the street we asked to be relocated to the building that Cam's American coworker was located at.
It's also in the Docklands area and is only a couple blocks south of where we were, so we were already familar with our surrondings thankfully and we now have a train and tube stop in our backyard!!
Here's some pictures of our new neighborhood and place.
