THE KEY FACTS
JOHN LEWIS OPEN AS USUAL
TRANSFORMING EDINBURGH
JOHN LEWIS
A new multi-million pound shopping,
entertainment and dining destination
is taking shape in the heart of the city
– Edinburgh St James.
John Lewis is staying open throughout the construction programme,
while the St James Shopping Centre is
being demolished to make way for the
exciting new shopping destination.
Set to launch in 2020, this exciting
development is already underway.
John Lewis will remain open
as usual throughout the
construction programme.
EDINBURGH ST JAMES
Located in the heart of the city,
the 1.7 million sq ft Edinburgh St
James scheme is one of the largest
development projects currently taking
place in the UK. The redevelopment
will see the 1970s St James Shopping
centre replaced with 850,000 sq ft of
shopping, dining and entertainment
space in addition to a five-star hotel,
up to 250 new homes and a cinema.
We are creating a world-class space
that will give residents and visitors a
place to live, visit and shop right in the
centre of Edinburgh.
You will notice a number of
changes as we work hard to minimise
disruption and maintain access to
your John Lewis shop:
• A new entrance to John Lewis
from Leith Street, in addition to
the main entrance.
• The John Lewis Customer
collections will be accessed via
the main entrance. Specific car
parking spaces will be available in
the nearby Q-Park OMNI.
• Exciting new audio and television
department and Place to Eat.
Following the closure of the John
Lewis and St James Shopping car
parks, the nearest parking facility is
Q-Park OMNI.
