Project Description

The first phase, Building 1; second phase; Building 4 and 5.  Each block provided Grade A office accommodation and has a gross development value of £80m.

The Haymarket Scheme delivered more than 380,000 sq. ft of much-needed office space along with hotel accommodation totalling 365 bedrooms and provision for 40,000 sq. ft of retail space. The four-acre site will comprise five buildings, three of which will be offices and the other two hotels. It is estimated that the office space alone will accommodate up to 4,500 workers.

The partners on this scheme, Qmile Group, M&G Real Estate, Foster & Partners and Sir Robert McAlpine, have previously worked together with Cidon to deliver the £750m mixed-use Quartermile Scheme, also in Edinburgh city centre.  Cidon worked with Sir Robert McAlpine on this development in which we successfully delivered six phases over five years. We are delighted to be working with this client group again, and hope for this particular project relationship to continue over the coming years.
