21st Century Homes - Pennywell Muirhouse

As part of the 21st Century Council Homes for Edinburgh Programme, Development Groups have been set up in Pennywell and Muirhouse, Gracemount and North Sighthill. The redevelopment of these areas will contribute towards Edinburgh delivering 12,000 new affordable homes over the next ten years.
Led by the regeneration teams from the City of Edinburgh Council, each development group has local residents as well as representatives from other local stakeholders and has been heavily involved in guiding the development of the masterplan for their area.
The masterplan for the North and South areas of Pennywell and Muirhouse was submitted to Planning on 11 May. Development Group meetings stopped at this point to allow the plans to go through the Planning process, and Planning Permission in Principle was given by the Council's Development Management Sub-committee on 8 September. The group will be invited to meet again during the next stages: detailed designs for the homes, and the masterplanning exercise to be carried out for the central area around the shopping centre.
