Bankside
Bankside is a district in the London Borough of Southwark. It's positioned around the southern bank of the River Thames, 2.4 km east of Charing Cross. It's part of the business improvement district referred to as Better Bankside.
Bankside is the riverside of the former liberties of the Clink and Paris Garden. For the duration of the Elizabethan period, these areas were outside the City of London’s jurisdiction so they became the homes of bear baiting pits and playhouses, such as the Rose, the Swan and the Globe Theatre. There has been a lot of regeneration in recent years, becoming well known with vacationers. The skyline of Bankside is accentuated by the former Bankside Power Station, which is now the Tate Modern.
The Bankside 1/2/3 complex on Southwark Street is the most major new development in the district. The three buildings house around 5,000 workers. Bankside 1 is also called the Blue Fin Building and it's partially occupied by IPC Media, while Bankside Two and Three are occupied by the Omnicom Group Ltd.
From 2010, quite a few improvement schemes have transformed Blackfriars Road from the bridge towards the south at St. George’s Circus and new buildings stand in place of post-World War II offices. These buildings are residential and hotel accommodation along its length, particularly at the junction with Stamford Street where plenty of high rises have already been constructed.
