What is recorded here
Beechwood Court rises on Castleton Drive as a twentieth-century tower and point block, its concrete ribs catching Aberdeen light before most cities wake. The shape suggests urgency: rooms stacked quickly, corridors built for numbers rather than names, yet someone must have lived inside that speed. Perhaps a child pressed a palm to the window at dawn, watching rain strip the drive clean while the city hummed below. The building does not need praise; it needs witness.
