Yesterday (May 15), councillors on Edinburgh\u2019s Development Management Sub-Committee granted planning consent for mixed-use development proposals at Ocean Point in Leith<\/h2>\n

Property developer S Harrison Developments is progressing the development of the current brownfield site.<\/a><\/p>\n

Once complete, Ocean Point 2<\/a> will comprise of residential, hotel, purpose-built student accommodation and commercial space.<\/p>\n

A Proposal of Application Notice was submitted in November 2022<\/h3>\n

A Proposal of Application Notice was submitted to Edinburgh Council in November 2022, advising the council of the preparation of a planning application.<\/p>\n

112 build-to-rent homes are proposed, providing a mix of studio, one-bed, two-bed and three-bed apartments.<\/p>\n

A quarter of these are three-bedroom apartments designed for families, and a quarter will be affordable housing.<\/p>\n

The new mixed-use development will also generate substantial local spending, totalling approximately \u00a35.3m annually from residents and visitors, thereby bolstering around 60 retail and leisure positions.<\/p>\n

Ocean Point 2 is predicted to generate 325 jobs<\/h3>\n

Additionally, the construction of the entire project is projected to directly create 325 jobs.<\/p>\n

Commenting on their recent planning approval, a spokesperson for S Harrison Developments said: \u201cWe are delighted that we have received a green light for our planning application.<\/p>\n

“This will serve to deliver much-needed homes and student accommodation to an area which is undergoing a rapid transformation, delivering a truly mixed sustainable neighbourhood.”<\/p>\n
