Plans for 142 new flats in the site of a derelict old people’s home look set to be approved by Edinburgh City Council.
The major new development in Almond would see the development of a host of new flats, associated roads, parking and green spaces. The site is currently the derelict building of Silverlea Residential Home on Muirhouse Parkway.
The new development would be a cluster of different flat blocks, varying in size from four to six stories tall. The plans were announced in 2020, with councillors Louise Young and Kevin Lang saying at the time that the new builds would be “100 percent affordable housing.”
