About Quartermile.

Quartermile is Edinburgh's most significant mixed-use development — the former Royal Infirmary site transformed into a 26-acre campus combining Grade A offices, research facilities, and residential. Foster + Partners designed the masterplan, and the result is a district of exceptional quality: modern, sustainable, and purpose-built for the knowledge economy. The BioQuarter adjacency gives Quartermile a life sciences and medical research cluster that is unique in Scotland.

Transport is excellent: Edinburgh Park station is a short walk, providing direct connections to Waverley, Haymarket, and the airport via the Fife Circle. The tram line runs adjacent to Quartermile, connecting to Edinburgh Airport and Leith. The A720 City Bypass is accessible for car travel, and parking is more generous than central Edinburgh.

Businesses choose Quartermile for the quality, the value relative to the New Town, and the research cluster. The BioQuarter adjacency is commercially significant for life sciences, biotech, and medical device companies that need proximity to the NHS and academic research. The campus environment attracts firms that need a high-spec, self-contained base away from the city centre.
