Historical background British ports used to be the distribution center of world trade, advanced and prosperous, Canary Wharf is London's outstanding dock. At that time, Canary Wharf was a never-night pier, large and small ships were loading and unloading on the water, and many ships were waiting at the anchorage outside. However, in the 1960s, due to the shrinking of the maritime industry, some of the original port terminals in London gradually declined until they were closed, and the 22-square-kilometer terminal in Canary was one of them. In the mid-1980s, the City of London established the Docklands Development Corporation, which began a comprehensive transformation of the area.
