The modern towers of Canary Wharf greet you on arrival at one of the first Elizabeth Line (previously Crossrail) Stations to be completed.
There outside the Canada Place exit, our Blue Badge guide, Rachel Kolsky, will guide us beginning in one of London’s sky gardens inspired by and providing a dramatic contrast with the original sugar warehouses of West India Dock. The backbreaking and dangerous working conditions of the dockers have been transformed into a vibrant financial and residential centre for London. Compare the worlds of the dockers of yesteryear with the wharfers of today and marvel at the continuing development of this ever growing neighbourhood.
Our walk will end near the Museum in Docklands and three tube stations.
