A £1.7m project, dedicated to supporting Scotland's creative industries sector, is underway according to the BBC.

The project is part of a redevelopment of the city of Dundee.

District 10 will be located at Seabraes Yard and will create almost 40 jobs, as well as generate up to £10m for the local economy over the next ten years.


The project, which will see offices constructed from recycled shipping containers, has been jointly funded by the Scottish Government, Scottish Enterprise, the European Regional Development Fund and Tayside charity, Matthew Trust.

Scottish Enterprise Director of Business Infrastructure, Allan McQuade, said: "District 10 is an exciting new development that will stimulate economic growth both for Tayside and the wider Scottish economy by further enhancing Dundee Waterfront's reputation as a first-class location for business."

District 10 is expected to be completed by the summer.
