The new Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) Group World Headquarters is situated on the site of the former Gogarburn Hospital, which lies within the Edinburgh Green Belt. AECOM’s role as landscape masterplanners involved carrying out the landscape and visual impact assessment for the Environmental Impact Assessment and developing the external setting, which consists of extensive use of natural stone for entrances/drop-offs, and themed contemporary courtyards.

Between Edinburgh and the city airport, the sensitive, 65 hectare green-belt site is adjacent to three Areas of Great Landscape Value and within the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes.
