| Description |
|
The architects
say of the station that, "... The
station as a whole is conceived as a
local landmark through the integration
of the bridge and feature lift towers.
The canopy sails over the bridge
structure as a lightweight aerofoil fin
suspended from two towers, mirrored in
plan at either end of stairways to the
bridge deck. ... ... The lift towers themselves are beacons in the landscape creating a visual identity for the DLR Station discernible from Chrisp Street and across Langdon Park. Use of transparent materials and careful consideration in layout affords the passenger a sense of security whilst moving through the station and its environs by the elimination of blind spots."   |
