Opened on 1st September 1866, the station later came to include a hotel which was built a year later and designed by Edward Middleton Barry, the son of architect Charles Barry who designed the Palace of Westminster. Due to its close proximity to the Thames river, the station help bolstered as the center of trade and became populated with warehouses and industrial buildings.Assassin's Creed: Syndicate –
