Walkway (A Space)


The shortcut
The most direct route
The straight line from A to B
The desire path
Called THE WALKWAY

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Up ramp – upstream – a tributary – flows forcibly on a straight course through the centre of the Windermere and Derwent Estates. Fortified on either side by banks of high walled brick buildings. Forbidding grey tarmac – murky and muddied by its foot-passengers. Wide and clear, a concrete river – calm today – lets us easily stream along – no danger of bumping into each other laden with the cargo of everyday life

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The disembark
The gentle decline
The sloping ramp
Downstream Maplin St
Mercilessly to the A11.
