Bankside
Bankside is a district in the London Borough of Southwark. It is positioned on the southern bank of the River Thames, 2.4 km east of Charing Cross. It is part of the business improvement district generally known as Better Bankside.
Bankside is the riverside of the former liberties of the Clink and Paris Garden. Through the Elizabethan period, these areas were outside the City of London’s jurisdiction so they became the homes of bear baiting pits and playhouses, like the Rose, the Swan and the Globe Theatre. There has been lots of regeneration in recent years, becoming well-liked with tourists. 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 important new development inside the district. The three buildings house around 5,000 personnel. Bankside 1 is also called the Blue Fin Building and it's partially occupied by IPC Media, whilst Bankside 2 and 3 are occupied by the Omnicom Group Ltd.
From 2010, many development schemes have transformed Blackfriars Road from the bridge to 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, in particular at the junction with Stamford Street exactly where lots of high rises happen to be constructed.
