West Granton Road
The aspiration for the development was high quality flats for rent, with a high standard of energy efficiency; respectful of the scale and proximity of the existing neighbours, being careful to maintain their privacy in avoiding overlooking their gardens. At the same time the development was required to present a strong contemporary visual presence to the street to meet the Planning Authority’s aspirations for this “gateway” location.
This development’s clean contemporary image within the existing community at the edge of the planned Waterfront area contributes
towards removing the barriers to successfully integrating the new waterfront development with adjacent communities.
