## Resource

Edinburgh’s new aparthotel, approved despite neighborhood pushback, will rise where an old warehouse once stood on Leith Walk, offering 29 beds across 11 units with bike storage and a garden. Residents feared the two- to three-story structure would cast shadows and darken their homes, but 46 supporters backed the project. Developers pledged community collaboration and design tweaks, while city officials assured minimal disruption and no harm to the neighborhood’s character. Conditions include landscaping rules and a $100K contribution to the city’s tram project. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
