Developer S1 Developments is giving the public a chance to have its say on proposals for a new student residential development at Edinburgh s former Tynecastle High School site. The development will regenerate a site that has currently lain vacant for over a decade and fallen into a state of disrepair A full assessment has been undertaken by S1 and due to a number of constraints, the best use of the site is judged to be for car free student development, with the original category B-listed school building on McLeod Street retained and restored. Proximity to North British Distillery, who previously owned the site, Tynecastle Stadium and the Western Approach, with issues around light, smell, noise and traffic make student accommodation a more effective use of the site than residential accommodation.
