The Future
Bellway Homes recently completed "Zenith" on the north west side of the basin. Four retail units facing the basin lie vacant, apparently due to lack of service access provision for deliveries. Recently works have been undertaken as part of the Docklands Light Railway 3-car capacity enhancement project, the Limehouse station has been extended over Branch Road with a new entrance close to the north west corner of the basin. The station is now served by 3-car trains on the Bank-Lewisham and Tower Gateway-Beckton routes.
First Base are expected to hold a public consultation on the site overlooking the basin on Branch Road later in 2008.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“Higher than the question of our duration is the question of our deserving. Immortality will come to such as are fit for it, and he would be a great soul in future must be a great soul now.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
