I wandered down there just the other week, probably hadn’t been there since Covid and man, if there was ever a living, breathing reason to pedestrianise central London much as possible, this is it. It is really serene, relaxing and a pleasant spot to be.
It used to be one of those places you’d only walk past if you **had to **.
Superb stuff!

Its a good change, but these pictures man......having HDR and saturation dialled to 100 in the lower picture is unnecessary.
I think the first pic is from good street view. The second could well be default settings on whatever the camera model was.
There are no HDR haloes and the saturation is only high in the greens. I think you're just comparing two pictures, one of which has bright green in and feeling weird about it.
Sky is roughly the same value, buildings are way brighter in the bottom image.
Oversaturated greenery with grey concrete makes it kinda post apocalyptic. I.e. typical London.
