UK - London - 1990s Canary Wharf tower in docklands

The One Canada Square is seen soon after its completion in the early-1990s. Seen from a low angle inside the dome of Cabot Square shopping mall, we see the tall building rising above us. Canary Wharf is the product of the 1980s financial boom when during the office of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, huge building projects such as the Docklands consortium saw vast changes in London's landscape. One Canada Square (often incorrectly called Canary Wharf, after its location) is a skyscraper in Canary Wharf, London. It was the tallest building in the United Kingdom from 1990 to 2010, standing at 235 metres (770 ft) above ground level and containing 50 storeys.
