Poplar is a nasty shithole, and given that it's remained immune to improvement despite having been right next to Canary Wharf for 20 years, I think we can safely say it will never be up and coming.
When I first moved there there was a bridge over the DLR (where Langdon Park station now is) upon which was graffitied "PACKY CUNTS", which is either symptomatic of the poor standards of education the racist locals attained, or someone who held a real grudge against cardboard box-fillers.
