                  Probably easy for some. Photo taken in 1969. Where is this?

                    2nd photo down is a spindle-shaped object (?building) with the caption: "No introduction necessary." Well, maybe not to a Londoner in 2009. But on THIS side of the pond 8 1/2 years later, I have NO idea what the Hell it is! (And this quite pertinent to Ripperology or any other historical study: ASSUMED knowledge isn't always clear to EVERYONE at the TIME, let alone years/decades/centuries later!!)

                      Ooops.

                      I was trying to post a reply to a 2009 posting by John Bennett. I thought that I had set it up correctly, but it seems like the cite didn't post.

                        I believe you mean his photo of the Gherkin.

                        Discussion for general Whitechapel geography, mapping and routes the killer might have taken. Also the place for general census information and "what was it like in Whitechapel" discussions.

                          Correct, Jonathan.

                          So just WHAT is it?

                            Photos inside Mitre Square looking up towards the Gherkin towering overhead are really something to see. Perhaps someone will come along and post one.

                              Used to be the address of the Baltic Exchange after moving from Threadneedle Street.

                              If Jack was my suspect,he might well have been familiar with the area as a child
                              accompanying his father and uncle from Hull.
                              Both were Master Mariners trading the Baltic Sea.
