A NEW housing development featuring an estimated 400 apartments could be built in Reading town centre if plans are approved.
Foundry Quarter is a development that will sit between Weldale Street and Chatham Street and comprises four large blocks.
A green roof is planned for the new buildings … as well as a blue roof. This functions as a sustainable drainage method used to manage rainwater and route it to the plants growing there.
Plans also show solar panels installed on the roof.
