Granton Station Architects Nominated for Prestigious RICS Award

The RICS Awards recognise industry-leading achievements and demonstrate the upholding of the highest standards of professionalism and ethics by individuals and teams across the built and natural environments.

ADP Architects have been nominated for the Refurbishment Revitalisation Award 2024 by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors in recognition of their amazing work on the Granton Station project. ADP sensitively restored the vacant, historic station building into a new sustainable home for the social enterprise charity Wasps Studios, supporting the local creative community. Positioned as a landmark at the gateway to the Granton Waterfront Regeneration area, this project significantly contributes to the local area’s broader regeneration efforts.

Granton Station is a £4.75m project led by City of Edinburgh Council to restore and adapt the B-listed former Granton Gas Works Railway Station, a landmark building that sits at the gateway to the Granton Waterfront Regeneration area.

Disused as a station since 1942, the new facility delivers a 600m2 creative hub offering affordable, high quality workspaces, co-working desk spaces, a gallery/workshop space and meeting room provision, set in a newly landscaped public realm and outdoor events space.

Congratulations and good luck to the ADP team that led on the Granton Station project!
