Aberdeen, Castleton Drive, Oldcroft Court

Point Block (20th Century), Tower Block (20th Century)

What is recorded here

Oldcroft Court rises on Castleton Drive as a blunt finger of concrete, pointing at the Aberdeen sky instead of hiding behind decoration. Its sharp edge cuts through ordinary city blocks, forcing the eye upward and admitting that human ambition still builds stiff lines against the wind. The tower does not ask permission to be seen. It stands where it was set, unapologetic and clear.
