There's no other reason for it being built so much earlier than the
rest of the line. The Canary Wharf Group (or whatever they're called)
must be very keen to get those shops open.

Do they have to dig the tunnels that connect to the station first, or
does the station box come first?

If they don't want the tunnels to flood, they'd better build the station box
first!

If they build a tunnel all the way through the site, why would that fill
up with water any more than the other bits of tunnel under other docks
and the river?

Or are you suggesting the tunnel isn't deep enough to be completely
under the dock - which would be very odd because the station box is
shorter than the dock.
