In recent years, the East End of London has been dramatically transformed from a poor, working-class area, to one of the most fashionable neighbourhoods in the world. Adding to a growing body of research which examines the sociolinguistic dynamics of gentrifying neighbourhoods, this article draws on data from two ethnographic projects to examine how young people from the gentrified (i.e. working-class) and gentrifier (i.e. middle-class) communities index place attachment in East London. I demonstrate that for the gentrified community, place attachment is related to the ethnic and cultural genealogy of the immediate, local neighbourhood. Whilst for the gentrifiers, place identity is associated with the cosmopolitan economic and social opportunities of the city. I argue that whilst these communities occupy the same physical neighbourhood, these discourses suggest that they conceptually and socioculturally reside in two very different cities.

近年来，伦敦东区已经从一个贫穷的工人阶级地区急剧转变为世界上最时尚的街区之一。除了越来越多的研究中产阶级社区的社会语言学动态之外，本文还利用来自两个民族志项目的数据来研究来自中产阶级（即工人阶级）和中产阶级（即中产阶级）社区的年轻人如何索引位置在东伦敦的附件。我证明，对于中产阶级社区，地方依恋与直接的当地社区的种族和文化谱系有关。而对于中产阶级来说，地方认同与城市的国际化经济和社会机会相关联。我认为虽然这些社区占据了相同的物理社区，这些论述表明，他们在概念上和社会文化上居住在两个截然不同的城市。（绅士化、地点、空间、东伦敦）*
