First tenant moves into Water’s Edge

The first tenant has moved into a state-ofthe-art office development Water’s Edge at Dundee’s City Quay.

Tayforth Properties – owned by 4J Studio founders Chris van der Kuyl and Paddy Burns – completely stripped and refitted the listed building previously known as Transit Shed 25 to create a modern working environment.

It includes office suites, meeting rooms and a break-out space designed to encourage collaboration and stimulate new ideas.

Energy company ScottishPower staff moved into the 834 sq ft space on Monday.

The firm’s digital director, Craig Paterson, said: “We are delighted to be part of this exciting new development at Water’s Edge.

“Dundee is well known as a hub of digital innovation so I can’t think of anywhere better to site our new ScottishPower Digital Studio, where we will design and build cutting-edge, customer-centric, digital experiences for connected-home, electric vehicles and beyond.”

Stewart Clark, managing director of Tayforth Properties, said: “We are thrilled to welcome an industry leader like ScottishPower to Water’s Edge and will reveal more new tenants over the coming weeks. Launching a building of this quality and ambition in Dundee is a real achievement and we’re proud to have delivered a high-quality result.”
