May 2007 and there is new housing going up nearby. This page is probably my final look at this desolate urban landscape. | |
 |
AQQA Stores is most likely closed for business now. | |
 |
Another look at this pigeon infested building on Niddrie Mains Drive and Wauchope Avenue. Lack of pedestrian traffic has allowed the weeds to grow in cracks in the pavement. | |
 |
The east end of the building shown above. It's hard to tell if TOLERANCE was stencilled on this livingroom wall before or after the other walls disappeared. Nor is it obvious what it is that should be tolerated... | |
 |
The northwest corner of the once busy crossroads. Hazy morning sunshine glints on a fire hydrant cover. This area is currently very popular with learner drivers. | |
 |
Wauchope Terrace is fenced off on the east side as new building work goes ahead. The 'Tolerance' building is in the middle distance behind a pile of rubble. Arthur's Seat can be seen in the distance. | |
 |
The east end of Wauchope Crescent. | |
 |
Number ten. | |
 |
Looking over number 6's front garden towards those shops again. The old cinema at the rear has long since been demolished. | |
 |
Looking east along Wauchope Crescent. |
