EDITORS COMMENTS
Corporation Street, once a bustling thoroughfare in the heart of Coventry, now stands as a poignant reminder of its former glory. This print captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the 1990s when this vibrant street was alive with activity. In its heyday, Corporation Street thrived as a hub for commerce and community. The co-operative shops lining both sides of the street were abuzz with shoppers seeking out their daily essentials or indulging in retail therapy. The zebra crossing served as a meeting point for friends and families navigating through the constant flow of traffic that defined this lively artery. However, on that fateful day - January 13th, 1995 - everything changed. Through traffic was banned from traversing Corporation Street forever altering its landscape. What once echoed with honking horns and bustling footsteps now fell into an eerie silence. This evocative image reminds us not only of what has been lost but also serves as a testament to resilience and adaptation. While Corporation Street may have transformed over time, it remains an integral part of Coventry's history and identity. As we gaze upon this photograph, let us reflect on the ever-changing nature of our cities and appreciate how even in stillness there is beauty to be found.
