Essen [WERDEN], Germany, Dezember 10, 2010 –The Wapping Hydraulic Power Station, on Wapping Wall, was built by the London Hydraulic Power Company in 1890. One of five London stations of its kind, it harnessed Thames water to provide power, not only to the surrounding docks, but also throughout the central London area. Today one of the most exceptional restaurants in London is located in this challenging environment.

THE WAPPING PROJECT – Inspiration inside
The archaic architecture is accentuated by the establishment. The curved, ergonomic design classics such as the Panton chair by Verner Panton and the Plastic Armchair by Charles & Ray Eames can be found here as well as the Tom Vac chair by Ron Arad. Conveniently bedded the food from the daily changing menu, combined with so much savour and beautiful spirit tastes even better. Lunch or dinner during the week and weekend brunch in addition – what women and men of the world can wish further more?

The Wapping Project - Exciting History
The showcase building of the London Hydraulic Power Company, the Wapping Hydraulic Power Station was used as a model for power stations in Argentina, Australia, New York and Europe. Celebrated for its singular combination of challenging contemporary art and performance, fine food and inspiring architecture, it re-opened to the public as THE WAPPING PROJECT in October 2000.
