You are correct, the reason given was that it would not open until
completion of the development of the area. It does seem strange that
it was fully fitted-out, even to the extent of having telephones
fitted, I seem to remember.

It did, however, recently (within the last couple of months) had a new
gateline installed.

They'd also have to have had to replace all the signs pointing to the
exits at that end of the station because from what I could see, they
all pointed to 'Great Wharf Road'. Which was presumably what Canary
Wharf was originally going to call that road on the eastern side of
the estate before they decided on 'Upper Bank St'.
