View eastwards at the junction with Millharbour. A sign points the way to the offices of the London Docklands Development Corporation - a pretty hectic place at the time. The Telegraph group were early adopters, and early arrivals 'on the island'. The photo was taken on a Sunday afternoon - but I have to say that even on weekdays there was the sense that the transformation of the area had just begun. South Quay DLR station is just behind the camera, to the left.
