It turns out they are called 'Gasometers'- do an image search & you'll see heaps of them. Something to do with regulating domestic gas pressure I think. On wikipedia they are called 'Gas holder'
I always wondered what they were too, I saw many in London and some in cities down here in Australia.

When a submarine pups water out of its floatation tanks its density decreases and it floats why does its density decrease?
When the tanks are full of water they force O2 out of the tanks. Once the tanks empty out the water they will fill with gasses that in the water such as O2 or Co2. These gasses are palpably less dense than water so the submarine rises. I hope that helps.
