ABOUT THE WATERFRONT

Intro

A Unique Opportunity

The £1.6 billion transformation of Dundee’s Waterfront encompasses 240 hectares of land stretching 8km alongside the River Tay. This wider area is divided into 5 focused zones starting from east to west: Dundee Port, City Quay, Central Waterfront, Seabraes and Riverside.

This strategic, focussed and forward looking project (2001 – 2031) is propelling the city to international acclaim.

Opportunities for developers, investors and a wide range of business ventures still exist in one of Western Europes most extensive and transformative waterfront projects. A few remaining sites are available in the Central Waterfront.
