awnings, in Tower Hamlets

Tower Hamlets signage, handled end-to-end.

Tower Hamlets spans two extremes — the private estate of Canary Wharf with its own internal approvals process, and the traditional high streets of Whitechapel, Brick Lane and the eastern edge of Shoreditch. Canary Wharf Group manages all tenant signage approvals on the estate; their design standards are prescriptive and approvals are internal rather than through Tower Hamlets planning. For off-estate areas — Brick Lane, Whitechapel, Commercial Street — Tower Hamlets Council applies its own shopfront design code, with specific guidance for conservation areas like Fournier Street and the Spitalfields area.

Questions we hear in Tower Hamlets

Frequently asked questions.

Who approves signage at Canary Wharf?
Canary Wharf Group's design team handles tenant signage approvals internally, separately from Tower Hamlets Council. We coordinate both submissions where the location straddles estate and borough.
Can I have illuminated signage on Brick Lane?
Yes, with advertisement consent — but designs must be sympathetic to the conservation area. Halo-lit letters and externally-illuminated fascias are typically the more approvable route.
What about Whitechapel Market units?
Street-level signage only, with no projecting signage extending into the highway without a licence. We design to the specific pitch and building configuration.
