Dandara reduces number of homes at planned Meadowbank development
Developers have lodged fresh proposals for new homes near Meadowbank Stadium in Edinburgh.
About this development:
- Authority:Edinburgh City
- Type:Residential
- Applications:
- Team:Dandara (developer), Comprehensive Design Architects (architect)
Dandara Group and CDA Architects plan to deliver 113 homes spread across four apartment blocks on Marionville Road.
The new proposal supersedes a previous application submitted earlier this year, removing a single floor from one of the blocks and reducing the total number of homes by 12 in the process.
Explaining their design strategy in the application, the architects wrote: “The apartment buildings have been designed similar to a courtyard. Four separate apartment buildings are arranged around a central landscaped deck which binds the blocks together.
“The buildings all vary in height, this creates a variety and character for each building and a change in scale which complements the surrounding context.
“A mews terrace is proposed along the thin stretch of land which runs along the southern edge of Lochend Park.”
