Spotted a piece in the Standard yesterday which in passing mentioned that this estate (near Manor House tube) was used as a backdrop for some of the scenes in the film. Anyone know any more?
I couldn't find the Standard article online but googling brought up something similar from the DT:
The rebuilding of a housing estate in North London, so distressed that some of the buildings were used to depict the Warsaw ghettos in the 1993 film Schindler's List, is to act as a blueprint for the housing industry.
The Hackney-based site, Woodberry Down, is part of an unprecedented 25-year regeneration scheme which will replaced 2,000 existing homes with 5,000 new ones in a bid to tackle poor living conditions and provide more housing.
