What is recorded here

Castleton Drive and Castleton Court rise in Aberdeen as twentieth-century point and tower blocks, their concrete frames built for density rather than dignity. They stand on accurate ground, mapped to the nearest metre, yet distance does not grant entry or understanding. The buildings may have given shelter, forced compromise, or simply absorbed the lives of people who never appeared in any record.
