By Tom Evans / Published 2nd July 2017

The roof of the Bow Wharf building appears to have been engulfed by flames at the scene near Bethnal Green and Mile End.

The block is described as a “residential waterside development” with five houses and 19 apartments which were set to sell for as much as £1million each.

Tenants were promised the building would be “finished to a high standard throughout”.
