Developer Square & Crescent is pushing ahead with its plans to redevelop Edinburgh’s former Royal Hospital for Sick Children into a residential scheme.
The £67m-GDV Royal Meadows project will see the four-acre site redeveloped into eight townhouses and 85 flats.
Square & Crescent co-founder Euan Marshall described the start of construction as “a pinch-yourself moment”.
“Most Edinburgh parents, at one time or another, have had to take a trip to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, so we are proud to have an opportunity to respect its history by carefully restoring the recognised building,” Marshall added.
Completion on the scheme is expected in late 2025.
