That, the timber clad exterior and all the guests arriving in huge 4x4s would make it 'Norwegian style". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15643#post-202392 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 16:56:42 +0000 PS 202392@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>A “NORWEGIAN-STYLE” marina </em></p> <p>Mooring for longships only? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15643#post-202363 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 14:17:49 +0000 steveo 202363@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The hotel just over the road bridge from Sth Queensferry (at one time the Queensferry Lodge) was once branded the North Edinburgh. Some marketing drones have no concept of location as long as they can shift "product". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15643#post-202361 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 14:06:49 +0000 kaputnik 202361@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The bridge with WH-listing is the Bridge, i.e. the rail bridge. If the new marina is west of South Queensferry therefore in the current vicinity of Port Edgar (where indeed this application is for), then it's a bit misleading to describe it as close that particular bridge when there are two others (well, one and a bit) even closer! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15643#post-202352 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:37:37 +0000 cb 202352@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/norwegian-style-marina-plan-for-forth-bridges-1-3922985">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/norwegian-style-marina-plan-for-forth-bridges-1-3922985</a></p> <p><em>"<br /> A “NORWEGIAN-STYLE” marina is set to be built in the shadow of the Forth Road Bridge and Queensferry Crossing under plans aimed at creating a new landmark on the shore. </p> <p>Developers behind the Port Edgar Marina project said the proposed site – located to the west of South Queensferry and close to the World Heritage-listed Forth Bridge – would boast a restaurant with “floor to ceiling” glazing and “stunning” views across the water.<br /> "</em></p> <p>A good opportunity to reroute Cycle Route 76 (and the John Muir Way)? </p>
