Living in Finsbury Park
Finsbury Park is more affordable than neighbouring Islington and is attracting many young professionals. Green space is abundant, especially the 122 acres of Finsbury Park itself, and there are plenty of leafy avenues and streets.
Thanks to a £5 million Heritage Lottery Award, the lake in Finsbury Park has been cleaned out and a new café and children's playground have been built. There is also an athletics stadium, cricket pitch, bowling green, baseball diamond, and facilities for football and hurling.
In Holloway Road there is an Odeon cinema and The Sobell Leisure Centre has a swimming pool, ice rink, gym, and exercise classes.
Other local amenities include a good number of independent shops, chain stores, supermarkets, restaurants, bars and cafés. Finsbury Park also has a rather famous mosque.
Much of the housing in the Finsbury Park area is Victorian and some of the larger villas have up to six bedrooms, although a fair proportion have been converted into flats.
Transport
Finsbury Park railway station is operated by First Capital Connect and provides a swift service into Moorgate and Kings Cross stations.
Finsbury Park tube station is by the railway station and is served by the Victoria and Piccadilly lines.

History and culture
Finsbury Park derives its name from Finsbury, which lies to the south of Islington. In 1869 part of Hornsey Wood was converted into a public park and called Finsbury Park to encourage people living in Finsbury to venture out of the polluted city via the new railway line.
Houses were developed around Finsbury Park railway station and the area is still dominated by Victorian architecture.
The New River, which runs through the northern corner of Finsbury Park, was built in 1607 to bring fresh water into London.
Finsbury Park is carved up between three London boroughs: Islington, Haringey and Hackney. It is vibrant and multiracial, exemplified by numerous races and cultures including those of the Islamic faith who attend Finsbury Park Mosque, now known as the North London Central Mosque.
For further information regarding Finsbury Park please visit the London Borough of Islington at http://www.islington.gov.uk/ - the London Borough of Haringey at http://www.haringey.gov.uk/ - and the London Borough of Hackney at http://www.hackney.gov.uk/ .
