Stage 1: Seafield Regeneration Community Consultation

Closed 8 Jun 2023

Opened 21 Apr 2023

Overview

The proposed City Plan 2030 identifies the need for a Place Brief and a Masterplan for Seafield. This is to ensure that as proposals come forward in line with its designation as a location for new homes, there is a co-ordinated approach to creating a successful new neighbourhood.

7N Architects have been appointed by the City of Edinburgh Council to create this Place Brief and Masterplan and are working with City of Edinburgh Council and members of Seafield: Connecting Coastal Communities.

We will be consulting the community in three stages. This is Stage 1 and concerns high level issues and opportunities at Seafield. We will be responding to the outcome of this stage at Stage 2 and then reviewing final proposals at Stage 3. Please see our main page for updates.

Why your views matter

Your views will help to shape proposals for Seafield to ensure that as it changes over time it responds to the local community’s needs and aspirations.  There are three stages as we want to engage as widely as possible with the community to include and share your feedback at each stage of the Seafield Masterplan development.

Please see above for the display boards we will be showing at the drop-in events – these illustrate the same questions as the survey below. Also shown is a map of the Masterplan area.
