The Proposals

The proposals are currently still evolving, which is why your feedback at this stage is important. The current proposals are for a purpose-built student accommodation development at the site.

The Applicant is seeking to bring forward a purpose-built student accommodation development at the site. The proposals comprise the erection of four new buildings, with new pedestrian and cycle routes to be provided, linking Yeaman Place to Dundee Street and the Union Canal.

The development will also provide external and internal amenity spaces, access, cycle parking and landscaping. The initial proposals have been developed in accordance with City of Edinburgh Council policy and guidance, taking account of the characteristics of the site and surrounding context.

The proposed development seeks to make more efficient use of this highly accessible, sustainable site, by providing much needed student accommodation in a range of types and styles. High-quality internal and external amenity spaces are also proposed. Our PDF consultation boards can be accessed using the link below and these contain further details of the proposed development.
