Bit late?

Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.

Just a tad...
“The whole site should be reviewed again. It is not a bad building but pays no regard whatsoever to surrounding buildings.”
Nor did the Scottish Provident building, to be fair.
I'll have a look for the plans of this "entirely new modernist frontage with limestone columns and large windows offering views out towards the Forth" that they've lodged when I have a bit of time.
I'm sure the planning committee won't just rubber stamp whatever is put in front of them, regardless of its suitability for the site. They don't have a track record of doing anything like that at all. At all, at all.
As far as I can tell "the entirely new modernist frontage with limestone columns and large windows" is the same design they've been touting for several months. At least, that's the one featured in the appendices to the most recent application.
