Pumping Station beside Alexandra Dry Dock

This view looks to the west towards the Victorian pumping station situated near the eastern end of Ocean Drive, beside Alexandra Dry Dock.

Alexander Dry Dock (filled with water when this photo was taken) is on the extreme right of the picture.

The dock straight ahead is Prince of Wales Dock, and the new building in the background (close to Ocean Terminal) is Ocean Point 1, built in the early 2000s, close to the shopping and entertainment complex, Ocean Terminal (hidden behind the pumping station).

Please click on the thumbnail image below to see an aerial view of Alexandra Dry Dock, Prince of Wales Dock and other Docks at Leith.
