I was one of the first visitors to Canary Wharf in 1981, delivering a parcel when it was a Portakabin.

Poplar: Follett Street, E14 (2)
Many of the buildings that existed in Poplar at the start of the Second World War were either damaged during the Blitz, or else had to be demolished after the war in order to undertake the essential complete redevelopment of the area. Just occasionally some pockets of pre-war buildings remain, cheek by jowl, with more modern buildings, as here in Follett Street.
Firstly on the right is a building dating from 1899. The cross in the date tablet suggests that this is ecclesiastical in origin, and probably associated with Image which is opposite. Secondly and beyond it is one of the few surviving ordinary Victorian residential properties, that must have been typical of a lot in the area. Beyond that the street reverts to one of the usual tedious and anonymous small blocks of flats.

Poplar: Follett Street, E14 (1)
The changing demographics of the East End are visible here. High up on the building on the right is an advert that I can't quite completely decipher, but seems to be advising that the family grocers previously resident there used to have the largest sale of a certain brand of soap in the world. Their shop is now Hin Cheong's Chinese takeaway, while the building with the buff bricks is in use as a Somali community centre.
