Foster and Partners Masterpanned the Quartermile Development in the Tollcross area of Ediburgh, not Granton Waterfront.

Llewelyn-Davies Architects did the masterplan of the Granton region with further detailed masterplans being developed by Page and Park Architects, Robert Adam Architects, and MAKE Architects.

Info on trams needs further update

I see that editor @Deiz: has made a useful update on the plans for an extension of the tram network to Granton. However, this needs further updating in the light of the recent decision to revive plans for Phase 1b independently of the Newhaven extension. If nobody else does this update, I'll have a shot at it myself if I can find suitable sources. Mike Marchmont (talk) 08:38, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great spot, I wasn't aware from the sources I checked that P1b and Newhaven had been decoupled. Deiz (talk) 22:48, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Granton Gas Holder Park

It might also be useful to go into a bit more detail about the recent refurbishment of the surviving gasholder, and the opening of the Granton Gas Holder Park (which opened today). If so, that could perhaps go into a new section, rather than being tacked on to "Industry". I've got a couple of sources for this, so will try to deal with it, but it any other editor is able to do it, that would be welcome. Mike Marchmont (talk) 17:42, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
