Hackney Wick
Hackney Wick is a now a byword for regeneration and gentrification. I shot this area just before and after the 2012 Summer Olympics, the motivation behind much of the development.
The bagel factory is now The Bagel Factory — a ‘collection of warehouse-style apartments’.
The area around White Post Lane (where the caravan is) was razed to the ground and awaits a similar housing complex.
The Lord Napier is still there, just about.
