London is the loudest city I've ever lived in — something about the rain, the squealing brakes on the black cabs, the construction, and the roar of pubs — as anyone who's received a phone call from someone walking the streets can attest. Simon Elvins, a London artist, has produced a map of the city's quietest spaces:
Using information the government has collected on noise levels within London, a map has
been plotted of the capital's most silent spaces. The map intends to reveal a hidden
landscape of quiet spaces and shows an alternate side of the city that would normally
go unnoticed.
