A sentiment to perseverance.
We’re thrilled to announce the approval of our Reading scheme in collaboration with Aviva, following a significant planning reversal.
Situated within Reading’s Station Shopping Park, the scheme is poised to introduce up to 1,000 new homes to the area, alongside new office and retail spaces. Initially submitted in 2020, the scheme faced adversity with a recommendation for refusal, following a public inquiry. However, this setback was recently overturned, recognising the scheme’s potential to deliver substantial economic benefits and address the pressing need for housing.
This achievement marks a monumental success for both our practice and Aviva. We eagerly anticipate the unfolding journey of this project and the positive impact it will bring to Reading.
