Kennet Island & Green Park

Kennet Island & Green Park is a modern business and residential district in southeast Reading, built on previously developed land near the M4 motorway. The area is characterised by contemporary apartment buildings, townhouses, and extensive office parks that house several major corporate headquarters. Its layout is defined by broad avenues, artificial waterways, and large areas of landscaped green space, including the sizable Green Park lake.

The district functions largely as a self-contained environment, with a retail plaza containing supermarkets and cafes serving the local community. A specific feature is the landscaped 'Green Park' itself, a large lake and meadow area designed for biodiversity, which contrasts with the surrounding commercial architecture. Transport links are geared towards road and bus connections to Reading town centre and the motorway network, with pedestrian and cycle paths integrated throughout the development.
