Public views sought on Leith’s Ocean Point 2 proposals

PROPERTY developer S Harrison Developments is giving the public the chance to view updated proposals for its residential-led development at Ocean Point 2 in Leith.

Neighbouring Ocean Point 1, whose occupiers include VisitScotland, the brownfield site will aim to comprise a mix of homes alongside other potential uses including purpose-built student accommodation.

Along with commercial uses/co-working and amenity space, landscaping and infrastructure, these will occupy two buildings on the site.

Following an initial public exhibition which took place in December, a second exhibition of updated proposals will take place on Tuesday 7th March between 2pm and 7pm at Ocean Terminal.

The development neighbours Ocean Terminal, which is set to undergo a £100 million transformation, delivering a mixed-use development comprising residential, commercial, retail and hospitality.

Further information will be posted on the website at: www.oceanpoint2.com

A spokesperson for Harrison Developments said, “Our proposed development, if approved, will bring much-needed homes and other uses to an area which is undergoing a rapid transformation, delivering a truly mixed community. Regenerating a current brownfield site, we look forward to continue to engage with the local community following our first exhibition last year and providing it with the opportunity to input their views and further shape our ambitious proposals.”
