no no > "Unlock the huge potential" = "We have big money with big self serving plans coming in." tldr from bsremover too: Smithfield: Big meat market, been there since 1860s. Billingsgate: Huge fish market, been there since 1327, now moving to make way for homes. So a real state take over, pretty much?

  Yes. Canary Wharf is being transformed from a purely financial district into a mixed business-residential district. They want to move noisy and smelly businesses away from the offices and apartments.

    Smithfield Market and the City of London are nowhere near Canary Wharf
