The Highland Council commissioned 7N in collaboration with RPS, Graham and Sibbald, and Lisa Mackenzie Consultancy to develop a masterplan framework for the Longman Landfill site, Inverness. The framework will guide how the Longman Landfill site develops in the short, medium and longer term to maximise its potential on a phased basis as the environmental impacts from its previous use are mitigated over time.
In the long term, the Longman area represents an excellent opportunity to make a significant positive contribution to the urban fabric of Inverness. As a pivotal area in a visually prominent gateway location, its longer term development will provide an important statement about the future nature of the city for visitors and investors, and an asset for residents of Inverness.
7N’s placemaking and landscape driven approach are underpinned by an economic development strategy to realise this longer term objective. The report is currently being considered by The Highland Council.
