POWDERHALL PLANS DELAYED
Council proposals for new housing on the former Powderhall waste-transfer site at 165 Broughton Rd have temporarily stalled.
ROUND AND ROUND IN CIRCLES
Following a second round of public consultations in late November, we await with interest a new planning application from Ediston and Orion Capital Managers to develop the site bounded by Dundas Street, Eyre Place, King George V Park and Fettes Row/Royal Crescent.
We expect to see latest proposals for the New Town Quarter later this month.
Local resident, playwright, poet and Edinburgh's first makar Stewart Conn has lived alongside the disruptive demolition here since work began in 2022.

We wish all our readers a very happy New Year.
