Renovated Feltham

Above is an image of St. Gile's Hotel which is down the road from Feltham Train Station. It is a clear reflection of Feltham's direct link to renovation which links to tourism and which in turn, links to Heathrow Airport because of which, change in Feltham's town-scape, industry, employment, economic status and certain cultures, came about.

Feltham renovation came about in the 1980s. Privatisation of British Airways in 1986 was a profitable move which resulted in high revenues and increased competition, which in turn increased employment and which finally resulted in a steep increase in employment in the local areas (such as Feltham). Feltham's renovation has continued to climb a steep ladder due to the continual expansion of Heathrow. Heathrow's expansion has caused the introduction of more hotels in the high-street area, a newly built train station, new high street (with new and popular stores) and a severe decrease in crime and an increase in contemporary architecture (in the form of apartments and stores).
