Reading

The historic power station south of the district, with fuel tanks, a planned marina, and a new park.

Reading Power Station, founded by Pinchas Rotenberg and opened in 1938, the same year as Sde Dov, anchors the district's southern edge. Generation was announced to stop in January 2024; the giant steel tanks are being reused as a culture and leisure landmark, with nightly lighting. A leisure marina of about 300 moorings (Ma'aganat Reading) and Reading Park sit next to them.
