Shape Coatfield Lane and Giles Street
Feedback updated 24 Aug 2017
We asked
For you to share your history and stories about the Coatfield Lane area and to give your thoughts about the area and what should be built there.
You said
We learnt a lot about the character of the area before the redevelopment in the 1970s and some of the positives about living there now (being near the shops, public transport) as well as some of the key problems (parking, safety and anti-social behaviour).
We did
Collective Architecture is developing proposals for the redevelopment of Coatfield Lane as well as wider changes to the area; this work takes into account the comments received.
Overview
It is proposed to demolish the Coatfield Lane housing development. Share your history and stories, tell us your thoughts about the area and give us your ideas about what should be built there:
- what type of housing?
- other uses?
- what kind of open space?
- what are the problems and how could they be solved?
It is an opportunity for you to help plan and shape the future development of the Coatfield Lane, Giles Street and Kirkgate area in Leith.
Why your views matter
The existing housing is to be demolished and replaced; this follows earlier consultation with the community. Collective Architecture is developing possible proposals for the area on behalf of the Council.
There were workshops on 1 December 2016 and this consultation provides the opportunity for follow-up and additional comments.
