London sees surge in canal-side developments.

London sees surge in canal-side developments. There are more than a dozen development projects underway on Paddington’s canal and Paddington Basin, at the intersection of Regent’s and Grand Junction canals in the west of the city. The public use towpaths for pleasant walks and the canals for water sport, such as canoeing, there is also the added benefit of the nature; canals offer a sanctuary for wildlife that you are not always fortunate to see in the heart of a major city. canals in northern U.K. cities, such as Birmingham and Manchester are also being reborn, as desirable places to live.
