Free Trade Wharf
The distinctively shaped blocks of flats adjacent to the Thames were built in the 1980s and take their name from the building at the far right of the photo which is a listed building formerly belonging to the East India Company.

Ratcliff: Free Trade Wharf, 340 The Highway, E1 (1)
This was once the site of the Bowles and Charrington Wharves, both part of the original Free Trade Wharf. The old disused warehouses were bought in 1977 by the Inner London Education Authority, for a site for the City of London Polytechnic. When this plan was abandoned, the land was acquired by Regalian Homes.
Designed by the architects Holder Mathias Alcock, the first phase of the Free Trade Wharf residential development was built in the 1980s, and the first flat was sold in 1987. The building is described as having “dramatic ziggurat-style terraces” and has often been called ‘The Lego Development’ because of its shape.

Free Trade Wharf, The Highway
Visually striking flats arranged like a cubist sandcastle. They remind me of Image By Holder Mathias Alcock, 1985-87. The original late C18th warehouses are just visible far right.

Free Trade Wharf, The Highway, Wapping
It was quite difficult to find a name for this 'landmark' building, some web sites refer to the older building on the right as The Highway, a converted warehouse but it would appear the whole complex is called Free Trade Wharf, 340 The Highway, Wapping.

London Marathon at Free Trade Wharf, 1982
The litter is paper cups - there was a drink station a few gulps back. The ornate gateway on the left and immediately flanking buildings are all that now remain of the Free Trade Wharf buildings after redevelopment. However, the gateway is changed out of all recognition and has become arched - all that really remains is upper part of the statuary. The church in the distance is St Paul's, Shadwell, completed 1820.
