An industrial park (also known as industrial estate, trading estate) is an area zoned and planned for the purpose of industrial development. A more "lightweight" version is the business park or office park, which has offices and light industry, rather than heavy industry.
Famous quotes containing the words industrial and/or park:
“The basis on which good repute in any highly organized industrial community ultimately rests is pecuniary strength; and the means of showing pecuniary strength, and so of gaining or retaining a good name, are leisure and a conspicuous consumption of goods.”

And the ominous, ominous dancing ahead.
We sat in the car park till twenty to one
And now I’m engaged to Miss Joan Hunter Dunn.”
