Overview

This consultation is the second stage of a 3 stage engagement process to produce a development framework and delivery masterplan for Granton Waterfront. Click here to view the results of stage 1 of the consultation "Tell us more about Granton Waterfront"

In March 2018, the Council acquired the former gas works in Granton Waterfront which substantially increased its landholdings within this priority regeneration area.

This acquisition provides an opportunity for the Council to take the lead in the regeneration and ensure a place making approach is widely adopted across the area. This will create an inclusive and sustainable approach to development, and accelerate delivery of new homes, school, medical centre, retail, services, creative and business space, and enhanced public realm to provide a vibrant, well connected new city quarter. It has the potential to become one of the best places in Edinburgh to live, learn, work and visit over the next 10 - 15 years.

Why your views matter

The views gathered from this consultation will help to shape the proposed vision for Granton Waterfront and will feed into the creation of a development framework and delivery masterplan. The development framework will set out strategies, principles and a vision which will guide future development in the area. The proposed development framework and delivery masterplan will go to the planning committe for approval as planning guidance. 

The geographical extent of this commission is outlined here and will build on the extensive work undertaken in previous studies, masterplans and frameworks.
