Riverside House is Wasps’ newest studio provision in Edinburgh, offering exclusively artist spaces in this concrete office block. Located in the Gorgie Road area, Riverside House was acquired by Wasps in 2023.

Gorgie is in the west end of Edinburgh, and boasts many small local businesses along the main road where Riverside House is located.

First opened in February 1903, Granton Railway Station was built to accommodate the commute for people working at the nearby Gas Works. Just over 120 years later, Wasps Studios (in partnership with City of Edinburgh Council) has established a new hub for artists, makers and the creative industries.

Granton Station is Wasps’ newest building in Edinburgh, providing artist studio and creative office provision.

Granton Station features:

• 24/7 secure building access
• parking facilities across the road at Morrisons supermarket – £2.50 per day or £45 per month with Euro Car Parks
• high-speed fibre broadband
• meeting room for hire
• bookable project space
• cycle parking
• lockers and shower facility

Today, Patriothall is home to over fifty artists and features a gallery space which supports an annual programme of exhibitions.

Wasps purchased and refurbished the building in 2004, securing the future of the studios for Edinburgh-based artists. The gallery space is managed by Wasps for the benefit of its creative community and wider audience.
