Edinburgh has a shortage of housing - as anybody who has looked for a property in Scotland's Capital will attest.
Currently there are a number of plans in the pipeline to create a range of housing to suit a variety of needs - and hopefully these major schemes will have a positive impact.
Website www.Skyscrapercity.com keeps a record of developments from the initial planning application to completion dates, thanks to the tireless work of contributor Kenspeckle, and lists numerous housing developments across the city.
Here are 29 of the biggest, what they'll look like and what stage they're at in the planning and construction process.
