According to TfL’s maps and drawings it looks like Barking Riverside station will be a couple of hundred metres or so directly inland from the T-shaped pier.

  1. I read an extract of this news on the skyscrapercity forum which quoted “L&Q pledged to quadruple house building rates on site to 600 homes a year” … I hope that 600 is a typo as that is a very unimpressive rate if those 11000 homes are ever to be built …

  2. Sounds like one to me! But then we do seem to have the slowest builders in the world.

    Try getting any work done urgently!
