In the 19th century, London Docklands formed the world's largest (Hafen) port. Ships arrived here with goods from all parts of the world. There were (Lagerhäuser) warehouses for tea, silver, (Elfenbein) ivory and so on. Now the former warehouses are nice (and expensive) homes and offices. The office building Canary Wharf is the highest building in London.
