This new eco-park forms the heart of New Islington, using nature to bring people together within an urban environment.

It consists of a new body of water, a boardwalk, an 'urban beach' and distinctive islands. Extensive planting includes an orchard island, a protective grove of Scots Pines around the beach, and wildflowers and reed beds, all helping to attract wildlife. There will also be a variety of follies, meeting shelters, bird boxes and floating wildlife islands that will create places to stop, relax and contemplate the environment.
