Formerly there ware railway yards and sidings on the west side of Lothian Road. In this photo, taken in 1993, the two storey railway buildings and the Caledonian Hotel can be seen. Within a few years, the low railway buildings had been demolished and a new Head Office for Standard Life Assurance Company had been built. on the corner of Lothian Road and the Western Approach Road. The Western Approach Road was realigned, further to the north, where it met Lothian Road, making room for Festival Square, the Sheraton Hotel and new financial offices to be built on the southern side of the Western Approach road. |
