Interesting photos of the ELL station

But the following really caught my eye:

"Wheler Street - the street directly in front of the station (over
which the arch below carries) - was postcodeless due to its age and
previous obscurity. Thus when the postcode request was made to Tower
Hamlets, TfL also requested that the road be renamed "Braithwaite
Street" in honour of both the arches and the man who designed them - a
request that has been granted."

Someone in planning has promised to investigate and get back to me.

Just the Northern segment from Quaker Street to Bethnal Green Road has
been renamed.
PDF is hopefully attached.
