Development
Gunnersbury consists mainly of pre-war housing of a variety of types, including flats, terrace, semi detached, and detached houses, some of which are ex-local authority built.
The defining symbol of Gunnersbury is the 18-storey high BSI (British Standards Institution) building on Chiswick High Street. Below this building Gunnersbury station serves the Richmond, London branch of the District line and the London Overground to Stratford, London.
In 2001 a former bus garage to the north of the BSI building was converted into Chiswick Park business park. It houses a number of companies including SBS Broadcasting Group, Teletext Ltd, CBS News, Technicolor, Discovery Channel Europe, Intelsat, Singapore Airlines, Qantas Airlines, Foxtons Estate Agents, and a Virgin Active health club (Virgin Active purchased Esporta at the end of 2011).
Immediately to the east is Gunnersbury Triangle nature reserve. An area of woodland, it supports a population of thousands of different species of birds, plants, and other wildlife.
It has free admission and its entrance is on the south of Bollo Lane, a few yards from Chiswick Park tube station.
