Description

Aberdeen is Scotland's third largest city with a population
of approximately 220,000 and a regional catchment
population of over 500,000. Its status as the Energy
Capital of Europe has been established for over 50 years
and this is set to continue with a new wave of investment
into all types of renewable energy utilising its skilled
workforce and onshore/offshore infrastructure.
Aberdeen will become the official headquarters of Great
British Energy, the new government owned energy
company. GB Energy will complement the existing
energy industries' efforts to achieving Net Zero whilst
aiming to strengthen the nation's energy security.
Froghall Terrace is approx. 1 mile away from Union Street
the main thoroughfare for the city, which plays a major
role in the cultural, commercial, economic, and social
scenes of the city centre with wide ranging access to
amenities and public transport. The main railway and bus
stations which are linked by the city's prime retail and
leisure shopping destination, Union Square. The shopping
centre, incorporating 700,000 sq ft of shops, restaurants,
and a cinema is the second largest in Scotland, having
been sold to Lone Star last year for over £110m.
There have been several high-profile transformative
projects in the city centre as part of a wider investment
into the city in recent years. The £35m redevelopment
of Aberdeen Art Gallery saw it named Scotland's Best
Building. Provost Skene's House was brought back to
life in a £4m project to turn it into a museum to famous
Aberdonians. £9m was invested in making the Music Hall a
modern event space while the Union Terrace Gardens have
undergone a £28m restoration to encompass new leisure
facilities and landscaping. The transformation is continuing
with current work well underway on the new £50m market
redevelopment named "Flint". The new market aims to
provide a vibrant, flexible, lively destination space in the
heart of the centre of Aberdeen with new street frontages
and improved pedestrian links to the wider city.

Froghall Terrace comprises a large rectangular site bounded on all elevations by secure fencing/walls. There are two points of access to the South of the site from Froghall Terrace. Access is controlled by double metal swing gates. The site is generally level and is predominantly concrete surfaced with an element of hardstanding.
