Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003) was a trained architectural draughtsman who became a sculptor. A contemporary of Moore and Hepworth, Chadwick's work included three commissions for the Festival of Britain.
Following the decline of the Docklands, and closure in 1980 the Government purchased the site and formed the London Docklands Development Corporation in 1981, granting Enterprise Zone status in 1982. In 1987 Olympia and York agreed a major office development which began in 1988, initially overseen by Skidmore Owings & Merrill and subsequently by Koetter Kim.
The name came from No. 32 berth of the West Wood Quay of the Import Dock. Built in 1936 for Fruit Lines Ltd, a subsidiary of Fred Olsen Lines for the Mediterranean and Canary Islands fruit trade. At their request, the quay and warehouse were given the name Canary Wharf.
The first buildings were completed in 1991 which included One Canada Square, often (including by me) mistakenly called 'Canary Wharf'. The development opened just in time for a recession and collapse of property values, which brought down Olympia and York. In 1995 an international consortium bought the scheme; they were called Canary Wharf Limited, later to became Canary Wharf Group. From then on the development has been bought and sold, but has become established as an outpost of the City of London, and a new financial hub.

The decoration of the wedding couple’s apartment ends with the ceiling of this last room, again frescoed by Giambattista Tiepolo with the collaboration of Girolamo Mengozzi Colonna. It shows Merit as a bearded old man crowned with laurels rising to the Temple of Immortal Glory accompanied by Nobility (the winged figure holding a spear) and Virtue (the richly-dressed figure to the right of the old man). Other allegorical figures and cherubs crown the scene. One of these, beneath the figure of Merit, is holding the Golden Book of the Venetian Nobility where the names of patrician families were registered, including that of the Rezzonico family from 1687 onward.
