The Western Basin, London Dock (Daniel Asher Alexander & John Rennie) opened 1805, closed 1969, infilled to rougly the former water level in 1982. The southern and part of the eastern quay walls survive. The former basin was redeveloped into housing in 1982/83. The photograph shows the demolition of the central jetty in around 1982, with the steel framework of the News International printing works being erected on the old north quay. News International has now itself been replaced by apartment buildings (2022).
