View of New Providence Wharf, across the River Thames from the Thames Path around the Greenwich Peninsular
The New Providence Wharf is a residential development in London's Docklands, at the north end of the Blackwall Tunnel. It was designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and is being developed by Ballymore, a property development company. It consists of a crescent-shaped block along Fairmont Avenue and Yabsley Street, plus two taller buildings and one small building. The Ontario Tower and Michigan Building have already been built and the taller Providence Tower is currently in construction and is due for completion in early 2016. Residents can use some of the facilities of the adjacent Radisson Edwardian hotel. The Ontario Tower is a residential development in Blackwall in the London Docklands. It was built by Ballymore as part of a wider scheme in New Providence Wharf to provide new housing to meet changing demand in the Docklands area. 'Ontario' was designed by the architects who created landmarks such as Chicago's Willis Tower. The Ontario Tower is a distinct landmark of the Tower Hamlets Skyline[citation needed] with its blue LED rimmed elliptical profile. The 29-storey project was completed in autumn 2007, and is expected to be joined by a much taller neighbour (Providence Tower) on an adjacent site. The Providence Tower is a 44-storey 136 m (446 ft) high residential tower at New Providence Wharf, Blackwall, London E14 9PJ, completed in 2015. It was created by the developer Ballymore, and built by Balfour Beatty. The new project was announced in Singapore in June 2012, followed by "investor events" in Hong Kong and Singapore in September 2012
