What is recorded here
Castle Terrace still stands as a 19th-century tenement wearing modern shop fronts, a rare marriage of domestic memory and commercial hunger. The building breathes through both layers at once: private lives above, public transaction below. Edinburgh layers its histories like sediment, never erasing the first draft.
