As the project has reached its second month of three, we have started thinking about sites from the information we have so far. One of the potential sites we have identified is an unocupied Public House on Duke Street just beside the historic core of Leith. It has been vacant for over 20 years, and is recognised as a Building At Risk.
The site sits in quite a prominent position with good access to public transport, cycle networks, and green space at Leith Links. However, there have been a series of rejected Planning applications over the years, and we're looking forward to considering this further in terms of the limitations of the site for a mixed use development that would better impact women and queer people in Leith.
Do you know the site? Have you been to Leith? We would love to hear form you!
