Get Bankside pros

Bankside is a district in the London Borough of Southwark. It is positioned on the southern bank of the River Thames, 1.5 miles east of Charing Cross. It’s part of the business improvement district known as Better Bankside. Bankside is the riverside of the former liberties of the Clink and Paris Garden. Throughout the Elizabethan period, these locations were out of the City of London’s jurisdiction so they became the homes of bear baiting pits and playhouses, which includes the Rose, the Swan and the Globe Theatre. There has been a lot of regeneration in current years, becoming popular with tourists. The skyline of Bankside is accentuated by the former Bankside Power Station, that is now the Tate Modern. The Bankside 1/2/3 complex on Southwark Street is the most important new development inside the district. The 3 buildings house around 5,000 staff. Bankside 1 is also known as the Blue Fin Building and it’s partially occupied by IPC Media, whilst Bankside 2 and Three are occupied by the Omnicom Group Ltd. From 2010, many improvement 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, specially at the junction with Stamford Street where plenty of high rises have already been constructed.
