Affordable homes built will rise from 500 to 750 but apparently 12,000 are required in the next 10 years. Public sector land is to be released for new housing, including major sites owned by the local authority and the NHS. The council is to press for more money from the Scottish Government. 4 Nov 2007 Proposed Edinburgh Housing Trinity Gardens, Trinity, north Edinburgh 2007- Richard Murphy with CDA + Conran & Partners Residential development for Meyer Bergman real estate 246 apartments located behind stone boundary wall Murrayfield Avenue House picture from architect East Fettes Avenue picture from architect Lochrin Place housing picture from architect Unite Edinburgh housing photo © adrian welch Telford West Housing picture from architect Recent Edinburgh Housing Tradewinds, Leith + Atria, Meadowbank + Queens Quay, Leith + Platinum Point, Newhaven / Leith - Mar 2005: images © adrian welch Upper Gilmore Place property: Modern Edinburgh House - Upper Gilmore Place: images © adrian welch Modern Edinburgh Housing Canongate Housing - Sir Basil Spence photograph © adrian welch Modernist Housing - Dumbiedykes Contemporary Edinburgh Housing Pollock Halls, Chancellor's Court- Oberlanders Achitects Craigmillar Post-war housing estate, refurbished Housing at South Gyle, west Edinburgh - E&F McLachlan Architects Slateford Green Housing, Slateford Green, south-west Edinburgh - Hackland & Dore Succoth Heights, west Edinburgh - Reiach and Hall Architects Alfred Place, The Rowans, The Grange - Arcade Architects Belford Road Housing, Dean Village, north-west Edinburgh - Richard Murphy Architects Annandale St Housing, Broughton - CDA Ferry Road Flats, Trinity, north Edinburgh - Richard Murphy Architects New Housing, Granton - Cooper Cromar Upper Strand, Granton - Various architects Telford Road, Granton - gm+ad architects Fettes Row, New Town - Reiach and Hall + Oberlanders South East Wedge green belt 'new town' proposal - Terry Farrell & Partners Bellesk House, Granton - Hackland & Dore Architects Housing, Coalhill, Leith - Allan Murray Architects Housing, Ronaldson's Wharf, Leith - Dignan Read Dewar with Fraser Brown Mackenna Crescent By The Shore, Coburg St / Dock St, Leith - Gregor Shore Couper Street Housing, Leith - Campbell & Arnott Architects Rennie & Patterson's Warehouses, Commercial St, Leith - renovation Platinum Point, Western Harbour, Leith - Gilberts Architects Lindsay Road, Britannia Quay, Leith - Hackland + Dore Architects Loanhead Housing - Arcade Architects, Edinburgh Shrub Place, Leith Walk - Broadway Malyan Dean Bank Lane, New Town - Richard Murphy Architects Ocean Heights, Western Harbour, Leith - Holmes Partnership Housing, 112 Canongate, Edinburgh Old Town - Richard Murphy Architects Crichton's Close Housing, Holyrood, Edinburgh Old Town - Arcade Architects The Park housing, Holyrood, Edinburgh Old Town - Campbell & Arnott Architects Housing for OTHA, Holyrood, Edinburgh Old Town - E & F McLachlan Morgan Court Housing, Holyrood, Edinburgh Old Town - Ungless & Latimer Social Housing, Noth Holyrood - Van Heyningen & Haward Architects Former Dental School Chambers St, Edinburgh Old Town - Lee Boyd Tron Square Housing Edinburgh Old Town - Richard Murphy Architects Cowgate Housing, Edinburgh Old Town - Richard Murphy Architects Housing, Dublin Street Lane, Edinburgh New Town - Richard Murphy Architects Historic Edinburgh Houses New Town - Second Phase by Reid; Elliot; Playfair; Graham; Raeburn: 1802 - 1823 Modern Lothian Housing Fisherman's Housing, Dunbar - Basil Spence (not online) Contemporary Lothian Housing Amisfield Park, Haddington: 1964 - Campbell & Arnott Architects Blindwells Masterplan, Tranent: 2003 - proposed Glassel Park: 'Earl of Wemyss' Modernist Houses, Longniddry Briery Bank Housing, Haddington, East Lothian For Edinburgh Houses see Edinburgh & Lothian Houses New Granton Housing, north Edinburgh: picture from architect Edinburgh News: 25% Affordable Homes Much-discussed blanket 25% target across Edinburgh now out for six-week consultation: now for developments over and above just 12 homes. Apparently 12,000 affordable houses are required in the Edinburgh area. Developers are unhappy with the proposals' lack of flexibility Feb 06 Affordable Homes: £1/2 Billion A ten year funding package of more than half a billion pounds to help deliver up to 10,000 new affordable homes, modernise existing council homes and regenerate deprived parts of Edinburgh has been announced. Edinburgh City Council announced the package following the decision made by the City of Edinburgh Council to apply to join the Scottish Executive’s new Community Ownership housing programme. The executive will contribute around £600m if the council goes ahead with the transfer of its 25,000 council homes to a new, not for profit registered social landlord. Jun 04 Filling in the gaps Demolition programmes mean the City of Edinburgh Council houses are disappearing, but new public sector homes are not being built fast enough to keep up with the growing population. Jan 2002 More Scottish housing: Glasgow housing Edinburgh Housing News Archive: Edinburgh Housing: £5m extra funding A Derelict site in the heart of the Old Town is set to be transformed into affordable housing. The site in Candlemaker Row is just one project to benefit as part of a £21m Scottish Executive package to create nearly 800 new homes in Edinburgh & Lothian. Apr 2002 New Scottish Housing Well done to East Lothian Council for getting out and investigating New Towns: A new village with a hi-tech business park and 3,000 homes under construction, impressed East Lothian Councillors and officials when they went to see how an English council was meeting the demand for housing. Blindwells May 2002 Housing Exodus More than 1100 private homes were completed in Edinburgh last year compared with just 424 housing association homes. The statistics also showed a fall in public housing being built in Edinburgh. Jan 2002 Houses opposition A proposed development of 400 houses on the banks of the River Tyne is to be opposed by members of Haddington and District Amenity Society (HADAS). The proposal involves houses on fields on the north-east border of Haddington, land highlighted as potential development land in East Lothian Council’s recent Draft Structure Plan. Haddington Golf Club are involved as an access road direct to Whittinghame Drive and the centre of Haddington (thus avoiding the busy A1) would run across the edge of their ground. A new Clubhouse is reported to be part of the deal. Haddington’s Nungate Bridge is reputed to be the oldest in Scotland: the proposed new bridge should be of exceptional design. Edinburgh Contemporary Architecture will demand that a national Architecture Competition be held for this and encourage others to write to East Lothian Council with their views. Edinburgh House - The Grange Dec 2002 Edinburgh Housing Density Mostly we build at only 70-80 households per hectare. So there’s nothing to be frightened of in high density - it all depends on the design, which is one reason why I have set up an urban design working group in Edinburgh Council, to see how we can improve our standards of design, especially in housing. It’s all part of going green - and, of course, a dense compact city is ideal for public transport. Trevor Davies is Labour councillor for Broughton. Enlarge Map
