Street in East London, England
Brick Lane
Brick Lane (Bengali: ব্রিক লেন, romanized: Brik Len) is a street in the East End of London, in the borough of Tower Hamlets. It runs from Swanfield Street in Bethnal Green in the north, crosses the Bethnal Green Road before reaching the busiest, most commercially active part which runs through Spitalfields, or along its eastern edge. Brick Lane's southern end is connected to Whitechapel High Street by a short extension called Osborn Street. Today, it is the heart of the country's Bangladeshi community with the vicinity known to some as Banglatown. It is notable for its Bangladeshi cuisine curry restaurants. The area surrounding Brick Lane and Spitalfields was branded as Banglatown in 1997, and the electoral ward of Spitalfields was changed to Spitalfields and Banglatown in 2002.
