The man, reported to be in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene just after 9am on Tuesday morning, after London Ambulance and London’s Air Ambulance had been called to attend.
Canary Wharf Group, the company which owns the property, tweeted: “We can confirm that there has been a medical incident on the Canary Wharf estate. We are supporting the emergency services in their response.”
