I used to cross this footbridge every morning on my way from St Andrew Square Bus Station through Waverley Station then along Market Street to my summer job at the Eastern Scottish Head Office in New Street during summer 1975. It was a very warm summer!

Scotsman Steps, Market Street. Now wonderfully colourful thanks to Martin Creed's work commissioned by the Fruitmarket Gallery

Great to see the area around St James' Square / Leith Street as it was and not ruined by the awful concrete development that is there now.
