Hide AdWaterfront Plaza is a major re-development of Leith’s shore comprising 422 residential units and 14 self contained ground floor premises benefiting from retail, office and studio planning content.
A second block is currently under construction and due to complete in phases from March onwards when the next batch of commercial units will be offered for sale.
Cameron Whyte, associate at Ryden, said: “As expected, and despite the current uncertainty due to the Covid 19 pandemic, these units have been extraordinarily well received in the market.
“The extension of the tram which runs alongside the development and the vibrant mix of amenities with the well-established Ocean Terminal retail and leisure complex directly adjacent to Waterfront Plaza make these commercial units a very attractive spot for any kind of business.”
Last autumn, Cala praised the success of its Waterfront Plaza development, which launched in July 2019 and became one of its fastest selling sites ever, with 16 homes sold in the first two weeks.
