Scope and content
In 2001 Conran Design Partnership (now Conran & Partners) were appointed masterplanners for the Leith Dock area of Edinburgh. Set within this masterplan was Ocean Point, designed by Terry Farrell and Partners and completed in 2004. Situated in the business quarter at the Port of Leith, Ocean Point is a 70,000 sq ft eight storey office block.
There was also discussions about Ocean Point 2 in 2007, also called Project Brittania, to fit residential accommodation in the same location as the office blocks, however it is uncertain if this was realised. Additionally, Terry Farrell and Partners were responsible for producing design proposals and working drawings for the 'Forth Towers' development project. It is unclear from the material if this was a separate project to Ocean Point.
