From the Middle Ages until the Tudor era, Greenwich served as the royal palace, and it was a favorite of the monarchs. During the reign of Charles II, the Royal Observatory was constructed in Greenwich Park. It is located on the River Thames in South East London and has a rich maritime history, which is still visible today in the structures of the Royal Naval College and the National Maritime Museum, as well as the Cutty Sark in the dry dock. The heart of Greenwich has long drawn many visitors with its market, shops, museums, and theaters, but it has also been an industrial area, and recent decades have seen significant changes along the riverfront and on the peninsula where the old industries have been largely swept away in urban regeneration schemes.
Greenwich Reflections is a captivating collection of historic and contemporary photographs that are seamlessly merged to showcase the area's transformation over the years. This book features 180 pictures, each combining a recent color view of Greenwich with the corresponding sepia archive scene. Through the split-image effect, readers can observe how streets, buildings, docks, and everyday life have evolved with time. Author David Ramzan presents this fascinating visual chronicle, which ingeniously reflects past and present glimpses of Greenwich. This book will be of interest to residents, visitors, local historians, and anyone with connections to the area.
