GREEN PARK OVERVIEW
INTRODUCTION
One of the biggest developments of its type in Europe, Green Park is truly a park for business, combining an attractive landscape with first class amenities. At Green Park’s heart is Longwater Lake, home to a variety of native plants and wildlife.
Overlooking the water are individually designed landmark buildings offering high-profile, high-quality accommodation to suit the needs of a range of businesses.
Today, these include leading international corporations such as Cisco Systems, Symantec Software and Logica, and widely recognised names such as Regus and HSBC. With office suites from 500 sq ft, accommodation also caters for emerging companies looking for room to grow.
ARCHITECTURE
The masterplan for Green Park’s business
environment was designed by Foster +
Partners, a name synonymous with elegant
solutions to modern work and living.
It provides a coherent approach to office accommodation. In the pursuit of a better place for business, individual buildings were commissioned from a selection of the world’s leading commercial architects: Nicholas Hare, EPR, Sidell Gibson, Scott Brownrigg, HOK and Tate Hindle.
The continued expansion of Green Park comprises both speculative development, and bespoke building design. The landlord works in partnership with occupiers to deliver highly functional, highly specified buildings.
SUSTAINABILITY
Throughout Green Park we have
implemented a wide-ranging sustainability
agenda, from the reduction of waste and
emissions to the promotion of biodiversity,
recycling and a green travel plan.
These measures are designed to:
• Reduce carbon emissions
• Increase recycling of waste
• Reduce reliance on private transport
• Minimise the environmental impact
of construction
• Minimise water consumption and
maximise re-use
• Promote biodiversity
• Promote health and wellbeing
• Create a sense of community
The Green Park Ecotricity turbine is the
most visible statement of our green
intentions. Designed by Foster + Partners,
it is a symbol of our commitment to
creating a sustainable working environment.
It generates 2.3 megawatts of clean energy,
enough to power around 1,200 homes.
