Edinburgh World Heritage in conversation with...architects
Is Edinburgh architecture at the dawn of a new ‘Golden Age’?
Today’s Edinburgh skyline reveals not only the towers and spires of our renowned World Heritage Site, but also countless cranes and gantries which signify the biggest building boom the city has seen for many years. In this conversation with leading architects Rab Bennetts, Malcom Fraser, and Richard Murphy, we will look at how the city is changing and ask whether future generations will look back and call this a ‘golden age’.
It’s completely free to join, but we welcome donations large and small to help us bridge the financial gap we face in these unprecedented times. Read our full statement on the impact of Covid-19 here.
