CARE HOME PLAN FOR LOGIE GREEN ROAD

Submitted by Editor on

Edinburgh-based AMA (New Town) Ltd seeks permission to convert Fusion House at 73 Logie Road from offices into a residential care home for up to 90 people (Ref. 10/00228/FUL).

The plan would involve building kitchens and administration space within part of a groundfloor car park, and adding a conservatory to the 3rd-floor terrace.

An overprovision of office space in the capital during the recession has made the 130,980 sq ft building hard to let or sell. In fact it has been empty ever since construction in 2008. 

Now, however, a potential buyer has been found, and AMA is keen to stress to Council officers that the care home could bring in 50 full-time jobs.
