Under modernisation plans for the East London line, Rotherhithe station was originally slated for closure, because of the difficulties there will be in extending its platforms to take the 8-car trains that will run from 2010. But mayor Ken Livingstone has stepped in to guarantee that the work will be done and the station will re-open with the rest of the line in 2010. As can be seen, the exterior is a very pleasing building.
