Hide AdIt is the first commercial unit to open as part of a complete overhaul of the shopping centre, and a wider project to regenerate Leith. Ocean Terminal’s Masterplan was unanimously approved by councillors on January 10, and includes plans for a pedestrian-centred waterfront and new residential, retail and commercial spaces, and high-quality public realm spaces.


Later in the year, gaming and entertainment provider, Level X, is expected to arrive at the 420,000 sq ft shopping centre. The venue will offer a range of activities - including bowling, minigolf, table tennis, karaoke, arcade games and a virtual reality arena.
Chris Richardson, managing director of Ambassador Investment Management, the Scottish owner of Ocean Terminal, said: “It’s an exciting time to see years of planning coming to fruition with the opening of Pure Gym. We are committed to working with the local community to deliver on a vision which brings positive social, economic and environmental benefits to the whole of Leith as part of a wider regeneration project, so we’re delighted to see the first steps of this becoming reality.”
A PureGym spokesperson said: “We’re delighted to bring PureGym Edinburgh Ocean Terminal members a new look and feel to their gym. Ocean Terminal Shopping Centre is a fantastic location for PureGym and the brand new upgraded gym will ensure members have 24/7 access to the latest state of the art gym equipment to meet their fitness needs.”
They added: “We look forward to seeing everyone, both returning members and new ones, enjoy our upgraded gym!”
