The abandoned Nike outlet is a mirror to the Overground tracks.

@mmetcalfe Shit, when did the Nike place close? Shows how long it is since I've been past it to Tesco, I guess.

@devilgate You should really cross the Tesco Barrier and give Homerton a try :) It's been closed for some time - maybe a year. I think there was a bit of a fuss when it finally did. That whole under-the-arches outlet district wasn't doing too well before the pandemic, and died the death during it.

@mmetcalfe I live in Clapton, so I have to cross Homerton to get to Tesco!

I know the 'Garment District' never really took off, but I bought a pair of shorts in the Nike shop, I would have said last summer. But it'll probably turn out to have been, like, four years ago.

@devilgate Maybe it was still going last summer. The last few years are a bit of a blur! AJ had already written the obituary in 2019: www.architectsjournal.co.uk/news/hack...
