Location: Gorgie, Edinburgh Client: University of Edinburgh Role: Developer / Main Contractor Status: Completion 2027
The Old Tynecastle High School will deliver 472no. student beds for University of Edinburgh students. The development is an exemplar for PBSA, both in terms of amenity provision for its residents and in terms of the overall sustainability of the building. The design used no fossil fuels, with air source heat pumps providing all hot water and electric heating throughout.
The historic façade of the old school building is retained and the internal fabric will be upgraded to provide a minimum EPC B rating. New build wings to the north and west create a collegiate style landscaped courtyard at the heart of the development. The development is car free, with more than 100% cycle parking provision. A community garden and charity space will be provided as part of the wider development.
