Cockburn Response
We support this application by social enterprise Edinburgh Palette for a new sea front ‘arts hub’ with business incubation and market facilities.
The development has the potential to transform a vacant industrial unit into a vibrant creative and community hub providing affordable shop and studio space for local businesses, arts and third sector organisations.
We urge that every opportunity is taken to enhance the site’s public realm and greenspace , to link the site to the adjacent promenade and to support active travel to and through the site.
