Aberdeen Scotland

Aberdeen, Scotland. Aberdeen can again boast two universities, and their architectural contribution of recent times is amply illustrated, as are town centre developments such as the Bon Accord Centre, the rejuvenation of Union Street and improvements to the Green, as well as schemes to transform Union Terrace Gardens. The most remarkable phenomenon has been the return of people to the city centre, where the resident population has doubled since 1990. To the granite villas of previous centuries, much new development has been added at Altens and Bridge of Don. The author enriches our knowledge and appreciation of both old and new, and this new edition is an essential companion for all who love Aberdeen, whether local resident or visitor.
