Looking Towards Canary Wharf on the Isle of Dogs. Canary Wharf is a rival to London's traditional financial centre, The City of London or 'Square Mile'. The extensive business development is located on the Isle of Dogs in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is centred on the old West India Docks much of which was destroyed in WW2. After a brief recovery in the 1950s, the port industry began to decline. The project to revitalise the eight square miles of derelict London docks began in 1981 with the establishment of the London Docklands Development Corporation. Picture taken 31st July 2007.
