Plan to redevelop former Edinburgh art deco cinema into flats

Glencairn Leith purchaseGlencairn Properties is to submit plans to turn a former iconic Art Deco cinema in Edinburgh into a residential development of around 37 apartments.

The State Cinema in Leith closed in 1972 and has since been used as a bingo hall, a nightclub and church.

Having acquired the derelict B-listed building, Glencairn Properties said its ISA Architects-designed scheme will help reinvigorate Great Junction Street.
