Police and paramedics found a man, believed to be in his 20s, stabbed in West Green Road, Tottenham, at about 4pm on Monday.
Despite the efforts of the emergency services, he was pronounced dead at the scene. His next of kin have been informed.
A crime scene remained in place in West Green Road on Monday night.
Local residents were told they would see an increased number of officers conducting patrols in the area.
There have been no arrests and enquiries into the circumstances continued.
On January 19, student Anas Mezenner, 17, was stabbed to death on West Green Road, near Turnpike Lane station shortly after 9pm.
Another male, also 17, had non life-threatening stab injuries.
A friend said Anas, a keen gamer and Liverpool fan, had been attacked after confronting muggers who stole another friend’s phone.
Anas’ mother told the Standard her son was a “lovely boy” who dreamed of being a pilot.
Five teenagers aged 14 to 17 have been charged with Anas’ murder and will stand trial on a date to be confirmed.
Scotland Yard said it was too early to say if the two killings are linked.
