Green Spaces and Riverside Walks: The Other Side of Canary Wharf

Canary Wharf is best known for its modern skyscrapers, luxury apartments, and financial institutions, but there’s another side to the area that many people overlook-its parks, gardens, and scenic riverside routes.

Despite being one of London’s busiest business districts, Canary Wharf has plenty of outdoor spaces where residents can take a break from city life. Whether you enjoy morning walks, weekend strolls, or a quiet spot to sit and take in the views, there are several green spaces and walking routes to explore.

Here’s a look at the best places to enjoy fresh air in and around Canary Wharf.

Jubilee Park

1. Jubilee Park: A Quiet Green Space in the Middle of Canary Wharf 🌳

📍 Location: Above Canary Wharf Underground Station

Right in the centre of Canary Wharf, Jubilee Park is one of the best places to take a break from the busy streets. Built above the Jubilee Line station, it features lawns, mature trees, and small water features, making it a great place to relax or meet up with friends.

Crossrail Place Roof Garden

Floating Gardens in Canary Wharf

6. Canary Wharf’s Floating Gardens and Public Spaces 🌺

📍 Location: Around Canary Wharf’s waterways and docks

Canary Wharf has several public gardens and seating areas built into its design, offering small but well-kept places to enjoy nature.

🌱 Examples of Small Green Spaces in Canary Wharf:
📍 Westferry Circus Gardens – A landscaped garden with views over the Thames
📍 Water Street Floating Park – A unique floating park with plants, seating, and views of the docks
📍 Canada Square Park – Often used for events, but also a good spot for a quiet break

Spending time outside isn’t always easy in a busy city, but Canary Wharf makes it possible to enjoy both urban convenience and outdoor space. Whether it’s a quiet moment in Jubilee Park, a walk along the Thames, or a visit to Mudchute Farm, there are plenty of ways to step away from the fast pace of London without leaving the area.

For residents of Landmark Pinnacle, having these green spaces so close by makes everyday life even better, offering places to unwind, exercise, or simply enjoy a change of scenery—all within walking distance of home.
