    With the Merc in @Dibble 's photo being parked inside the railing at the bottom left of the photo - hence the salmon coloured building just left of centre, is obscured.

    That would have you looking up the face of the tower, not across at it. The flyover would also feature.

    How recent is the salmon pink tower?
    Its missing from this picture which is taken from the Billingsgate roundabout but pinned closer to where I'd guess.

    Whats occurring in the developing area behind the black hoarding?

    If you look at Google Maps on a browser you can choose the dates of the pictures (if others are available) by clicking on the clock icon and "street view" text in the top left box.

    July 2016 - no salmon tower, no cranes
    April 2017 - no tower but a couple of cranes
    Sep 2017 - tower is a few storeys high
    March 2018 - tower is ~10 storeys high
    April 2019 - tower is undergoing cladding
    Sep 2020 - all finished

    Here's a link to the July 2016 streetview: https://goo.gl/maps/kn4Lrtsy1s1Mi9LKA
