Gabrielle moved into Wardian on South Dock two years ago
(Picture: Matt Writtle)My partner and I bought our apartment at Wardian on South Dock before we got married and had children. We bought it off-plan, so we paid in instalments. We moved in two years ago. The first day we walked into the lobby, we looked at each other and high-fived.
Before this, we lived in Shadwell in an old converted pub. Even five years ago, Canary Wharf was a bit of a dead town and weekends would be quiet, which is totally different to what it is now. I’ve become one of those people who never wants to leave their local area — I’ve got everything I need on my doorstep.
