Lincoln and Hoare Lea will be giving a presentation about the Development and we will then embark on a tour of the site with Midgard.

Overview of the scheme:

The ambition for Station Hill is to deliver an outstanding regeneration project that will create a new gateway for Reading. A mixed-use development, it will become a new district – fusing contemporary living, working, leisure and open community space.

The Station Hill redevelopment is finally under way and once complete will provide a truly mixed-use, sustainable development for the benefit of all. The mix of uses across the project offers new homes, assisted living accommodation, a hotel and flexible high-tech office space delivered as world class commercial buildings. The public realm in and around the site will include restaurants, retail, food halls, community and leisure spaces.

The redevelopment of Station Hill is set within over 2 acres of new public realm, designed to be accessible to all users and to offer a variety of experiences. The new Pocket Park adjacent to the station incorporates areas of play, adventure and rest whilst a new public plaza at the heart of the development will provide a stage for curated events and performances throughout the year. The public realm has been designed to merge with the surrounding area, include a bridge link over Garrard Street.
