A little further over to the west, fronting the canal on the site of the old Paddington goods yard (also, as it happens, Brunel's first terminus) the first half of the "Paddington Central" development, Sheldon Square by architects Siddell Gibson is in place. It comes complete with its office blocks, its central amphitheatre, its Sainsbury's and its Starbucks. If you had the time, you could take a boat up the Grand Union Canal to Birmingham and find yourself in a remarkably similar development, known as Brindleyplace, with buildings by the same architects. Paddington Central will now push further alongside the Westway, leaving space for London's long-desired but still not certain Crossrail express-railway project.
