This view too has changed hell of a lot over the last few years! Compare it with this view from Google Streetview from June 2012: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Whitechapel+Rd/@51.514794,-0.064166,3a,75y,269.55h,96.69t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sB5oRdTBvoEfB8aE43E_4Bw!2e0!4m2!3m1!1s0x48761ccc5d9a52b5:0x1d9e8daa94bf42f9. You used to be able to see Tower 42 from Commercial Road but now it's been completely obscured by the new towerblock on Whitechapel Road. The building behind it can only just be seen above it now too! Looking north-northwest.
