Is the East London neighborhood really named after the American state?
of Maryland. The East London neighbourhood — er, neighborhood — has been around since the late 17th century. But it wasn’t until the new Elizabeth Line subway route opened last year that it registered with me. There’s an Elizabeth Line Tube station called Maryland, which struck me as about as incongruous as a station on the Red Line called Piccadilly Circus.to be my tour guide in Maryland. Nick, 41, founded a Facebook page called the Maryland Community Group.
For many residents, the community’s appeal is more affordable housing, though nothing in London is exactly cheap. Rents start at around 1,500 pounds a month ; houses sell for between 350,000 pounds and 800,000 pounds, depending on size. “I think that we all look out for each other,” he says. “We're very neighborly.”
It’s a diverse neighborhood with a commercial drag dotted with kebab shops, Turkish barbers, African and Caribbean restaurants, a halal grocer, not to mentionThere’s an immigration lawyer, too. All sorts of nationalities call Maryland home.“There's not one more than the other,” Nick says. “There's a good blend of people, which is what London's about. It's for everyone.
