Bow West

E1 8 / E3 2 / E3 4 / E3 5 / E9 7

Up-and-coming

The western end of Bow, closer to Mile End Park and the canal. This part has seen more new development than the eastern side, with apartment blocks going up along the waterway. Mile End tube on the Central, District, and Hammersmith & City lines is the nearest station. The area benefits from being sandwiched between Mile End Park and the Hertford Union Canal, which gives it more green space than you would expect. Still a mixed area with council housing alongside the new builds.
