Alexandra Road Estate
The Alexandra Road Estate (officially the Alexandra and Ainsworth Estate, but often referred to as Rowley Way, the name of its main thoroughfare) is a housing estate in the London Borough of Camden, North London, England. It was designed in a brutalist style in 1968 by Neave Brown of Camden Council's Architects Department. Construction work commenced in 1972 and was completed in 1978. It is constructed from site-cast, board-marked, white, unpainted reinforced concrete. Along with 520 apartments, the site also includes a school, community centre, youth club, heating complex, tenants hall, and parkland. Views of the construction of the development are shown in the 1970s TV detective drama series The Sweeney (Series 3, Episode 9, 1976).
