Ambitious plans to upgrade a business park in Reading by building a new entrance, a rain garden, a large gym and a yoga studio have been approved.
Tristan Capital Partners, who own Reading International Business Park, say it is half-empty and struggling to compete with the likes of Green Park Business Park, due to a lack of modern facilities for staff.
But on February 4, Reading Borough Council approved their plans to make a range of improvements.
They want to build a semi-circular arch entrance – that will be made of glass and steel – at the 34,650sqm business park, which is home to several firms including the US telecoms operator Verizon.
