People can get full details of the Waterfront development at www.waterfront-ed.com.
We have been asked to provide this information by some local activists which we are delighted to do. You may find that this information is not your experience of what has been happening down Waterfront way.
Housing devevelopment worked closely with Waterfront Edinburgh Ltd on the design of proposed housing and the selection of developers to ensure that affordable housing is included in the Waterfront development.
WHAT’S PLANNED.
The development includes plans to provide up to 6500 new homes on land belonging to Waterfront Edinburgh Ltd,Second Site[formerly the British Gas Site] and Forth Properties Ltd at Granton Harbour. Approximately 1000 of these dwellings will be for affordable housing.
So there’s the info. Please don’t shoot the messenger we to are more than sceptical about 1000 affordable homes in fact we are not just sceptical it’s just not true. Of course there is even more.
Approximately 2.5 acres of land for affordable housing will be developed within the former British Gas site with the development expected to begin in2004/5. It’s now October 2007 where is the affordable housing.
