Crossrail Place Exotics

It's been a long time since I wrote a blog post and writing one after a period of absence feels a bit strange, albeit nice at the same time.

In the run up to last Christmas we made a special trip to check out the roof garden at Crossrail Place in Canary Wharf, London. It officially opened last May and it is a retail and public space with a 4,160 square meter roof garden. The complex was designed by Foster and Partners to mimic the clippers that once frequented West India North Dock.

As we entered took the escalator up and entered the complex this was first glimpse we had of a very promising public space...
