History
Edgware Road is very old; it is one of the first populated streets of the city. Arabs started flooding the street around 100 years ago. The Egyptians were the first to come to the street. They were followed by the Lebanese and then other nationalities followed suit. In Edgware road, Arabic shop signs are everywhere unlike in other European cities. The British government represented by the municipality gave permission to developing the Arab road as long as the law is not broken.
