King's Cross Local Information (WC1, N1)

An area which has undergone a rapid and dramatic revitalization over the past few years, beginning with the British Library moving here in 1998.

Other cultural HQs have settled here, including the London Sinfonietta and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.  A short walk will also take you to all the bars and cafes in Islington.

With the opening of the international rail terminal at St Pancras Stations and the development of Kings Cross Central, this part of the Capital is fast becoming a great place to live.
