RESTORATION AND CONSERVATION, WORLD HERITAGE PROJECTS

WAVERLEY STATION, EDINBURGH

Edinburgh is unique in preserving its outstanding combination of Medieval, Georgian and Victorian architecture at the heart of life in the 21st century.

Heritage buildings, as part of modern societies, are symbols of community, civilization and culture. No less significant is their major contribution to the economy, particularly in a city like Edinburgh where tourism is a central line of revenue for the government and businesses alike. The need to preserve our heritage is a cultural requirement, but also an essential economical demand.

"Edinburgh undoubtedly deserves world class services, including efficient and well-designed railway stations and exciting shopping complexes. It is a genuine concern how to deliver both without compromising iconic world heritage buildings. The new proposed master plan does not address this concern sufficiently. Further In-depth studies and alternative options based on preservation should deliver a more considered and appropriate solution." Arch. Pavlina Koeva-Ratcheva 28th AprilL'19
