Think King’s Cross and depending on who you are, you may think different things. For some this is a place to shop and the capital’s gateway to Europe. Others may view it as a creative hub: a place where arts, the media and commerce meet and commingle, while yet more may see it as the place in which they live. For almost everybody however, it’s a place to meet, and in truth, it’s a phoenix-like central London neighbourhood where a complex and intriguing history joins forces with a dynamic contemporary reality. Whatever your view, it cannot be missed.
