- Wapping is a place in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets which forms part of the Docklands to the east of the City of London. It is situated between the north bank of the River Thames and the ancient thoroughfare simply called The Highway. Wapping's proximity to the river has given it a strong maritime character, which it retains through its riverside public houses and steps, such as the Prospect of Whitby and Wapping Stairs. Many of the original buildings were demolished during the construction of the London Docks and Wapping was further seriously damaged during the Blitz. As the London Docklands declined after the Second World War, the area became run down, with the great warehouses left empty. The area's fortunes were transformed during the 1980s by the London Docklands Development Corporation when the warehouses started to be converted into luxury flats. Rupert Murdoch moved his News International printing and publishing works into Wapping in 1986, resulting in a trade union dispute that became known as the "Battle of Wapping".
- Wapping (pronuncia 'Wopping') è una parte del London Borough of Tower Hamlets che ricade nella zona di Docklands ad est della City of London. Essa è situata fra la riva nord del Tamigi e l'antica strada principale chiamata The Highway. La sua vicinanza al fiume ha dato alla zona una caratteristica marinara che si mostra con la miriade di pub siti sul lungofiume. Molti degli edifici originali vennero demoliti per far posto alla costruzione dei porto di Londra e Wapping venne poi seriamente danneggiata durante il Blitz. A seguito del declino del porto di Londra dopo la seconda guerra mondiale, l'area andò deteriorandosi a seguito dell'abbandono dei grandi magazzini rimasti vuoti. Negli anni ottanta si decise di recuperare l'area e venne realizzata una zona destinata a residenze di lusso. Rupert Murdoch trasferì la sua azienda News International a Wapping nel 1986
