Londoner and city enthusiast. My edits are usually centred around adding street-level detail based on my explorations of an area - obscure footpaths and interstices between structures are particular favorites. I also really like adding the courses of buried watercourses, which are often reflected in the streets and gaps between buildings above.

My edits from 2008-2014 are at urbigenous-old… shame it’s not possible to merge accounts. There will also be edits from before that under some earlier account lost in the mists of time. When I first got involved London was just a scrawl of lines on an incredibly blurry satellite photo… we used to ride around on bikes with GPS units to capture the streets! Good times.
