Stepney Green centres around a long, narrow park running along the line of a former medieval common. The area is primarily residential, characterised by Victorian terraced housing and a mix of modern apartment blocks. Several large educational and healthcare institutions, including Queen Mary University of London and the Royal London Hospital, are located nearby, giving the locality a steady, institutional presence.

The historic St. Dunstan's Church, dating from the 10th century, anchors the area at one end of the green. A surviving fragment of the old Mile End Road almshouses, known as the Trinity Green almshouses, stands as one of London's oldest sets of this charitable housing. Daily life revolves around the local high street and the District and Hammersmith & City line Underground station.
