The ward of Alexandra Park sits in the north of the London Borough of Haringey, centred on the hilltop public green dominated by Alexandra Palace. The park’s sweeping lawns, ornamental boating lake and high vantage points give some of the best panoramic views across central London, and the area mixes Victorian villas and estate housing with tree-lined suburban streets and a number of conservation areas.
Culturally the neighbourhood punches above its weight - Alexandra Palace is a long-standing entertainment and exhibition venue (notable for early BBC television broadcasts) and the park hosts concerts, an ice rink and seasonal events. The ward has a varied housing stock and a diverse population, with local high streets and independent cafés underpinning a small-scale local economy and active community groups engaged on planning and green-space issues.
