About Maida Vale
Maida Vale sits between between St Johns Wood and Kilburn. The area is mainly affluent, consisting of many large late-Victorian and Edwardian blocks of mansion flats.
The Maida Vale area is usually regarded as being bounded by Maida Avenue and the Regent’s Canal in the South, Maida Vale road to the north east, Kilburn Park Road to the north west, and Shirland Road and Blomfield Road to the south west. The southern part of Maida Vale around Paddington Basin, a junction of three canals with many houseboats, is known as Little Venice.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Maida Vale was a Jewish district, and Lauderdale Road in Central Maida Vale contains the 1896 Spanish & Portuguese Synagogues (a Grade II listed building) and headquarters of the British Sephardi community. The first Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, lived within sight of this synagogue on Warrington Crescent.
