Developers who failed in their bid to build more than 200 new homes at Seafield have been accused of "jumping the gun" by attempting to gain permission before the council 's wider plans for future development of the waterfront are finalised.
Edinburgh councillors sitting on the planning sub-committee threw out the early stage application on Wednesday (October 5) despite officials recommending approval.
One furious member said he was "really angry" at the bid put forward by Manse LLP which asked the council to green-light the principle of up to 220 flats on the site of an exiting car showroom at 24 and 25 Seafield Road East.
