The sessions provide a further opportunity for local residents, to share their views with joint venture developers Canary Wharf Group, Qatari Diar and the range of architects who have been tasked with developing detailed designs for the mixed use site.

Shell's London workforce will remain on the site in the 27 storey Shell Tower and a new office building which will include trading floors.

Led by stakeholder consultants Soundings, the exhibition and workshops will present the work of Squire and Partners, who are preparing the masterplan, and Townshend Landscape Architects, who are working on the site's landscaping.

It will also include initial architectural concepts for individual buildings from Grid Architects, Kohn Pederson Fox, Patel Taylor and Stanton Williams as well as Squire and Partners.

"We are very delighted with the number of participants that have attended these consultations so far and the valuable input that we have received into the masterplanning process," said a spokeswoman for the developers.

"As we move towards a planning application later this year, it is critical that we keep local residents, businesses and visitors informed about what we propose to build, and where possible incorporate their views into the design."
