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.

  • 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
