This is the central plaza of the new London City Island development, on the Leamouth Peninsula. From a geographical point of view it is not an island at all, but a spur of land that the tidal River Lee has meandered around, with the neck about 85 metres wide at its narrowest point. For a photograph of the site taken in 2008 by myself, when construction work was just commencing, please see Image
