Foster's future construction is the Isle Ov Dogs station of the new Crossrail city railroad, for which two tunnels will be built to connect the various rail lines in the British capital.

The new transport terminal will be located in the Canary Wharf area; its complex will include cafes and shops, as well as an extensive park that will occupy not only the area around the building, but also its roof. It is also planned to arrange a network of pedestrian paths around the station, leading to the station from the north and south. The project budget is 500 million pounds.

Rogers' master plan for Wood Worth is much more ambitious: it is a 15-year program to transform this old industrial area into a thriving mixed-development area, like Canary Wharf. On an area of 7 hectares, 6 office buildings and 6 residential towers will be erected for a total of 1,668 apartments (of which 483 categories of social housing). There will also be a coastal park, a new canal, a health center, a new type of library, and various infrastructure facilities.

Mayor Johnson stressed that the financial crisis is not a reason to stop all construction in London, and in a difficult economic situation, new jobs are all the more important, which will create both construction sites and the facilities being built themselves.

Richard Rogers also unveiled the first images of his PANYNJ tower in New York, which will be erected over the Port Authority New York New Jersey bus terminal building.

The project of the 261-meter building of the British architect was selected by the jury of the corresponding competition in early November, but so far only a model of the future building has been shown to the public. It is a rectangular glass block with frame elements and technical shafts placed on the facade. The roof space of the terminal, which will remain free after the tower appears, is planned to be converted into a park.

Despite the financial crisis, Port Authority officials view the Rogers Tower plan as central to their existing infrastructure renovation program and expect to begin implementation as early as 2009.
