There is still time to give us your views. Consultation closes at the end of April.
We've created a draft plan to transform Seafield into a new environmentally friendly neighbourhood. We want to know what you think. The plan includes: • 2,700 new homes, with 35% of homes being affordable, to address the city's housing emergency • a new promenade park linking together Craigentinny, Portobello and Leith • community services and facilities, including a new primary school, GP surgery and plenty of green space • opportunities for new shops and workplaces to create a vibrant and welcoming place • improved public transport, walking, wheeling and cycling routes that link to the wider area • a heat network to provide affordable and sustainable heating and help Edinburgh meet its net zero target. You can drop in to talk to the team at: - Portobello Library on 8 Mar 2025 at 10:30 to 1.30 pm - Leith Library on 21 Mar 2025 at 12:30 to 3.30pm - Craigentinny Community Centre on 22 March at 10.30am to 1.30pm.
