Was it the one at a hoose in Pilton Drive North just before it's junction with West Granton Road?

It was late eighties just found out from an ex workmate it was due to one of our workmates.Took down nearly the whole street I thought one of you might have lived around there.The scheme with the first level walkways.Think the Cooncil won an award for the whole scheme for reasons best known by the awardees.Flat roofs but not in the Med.

 

[Findlayhibby]

It was round about Granton View I think.

 

[Findlayhibby]

The area was demolished and rebuilt.

 

[Slippery kaboosh]

I heard about that .. apparently caused a few million worth of improvements

West Granton view i think early 80`s was a gas explosion and seemingly the guy tried to commit suicide, then gave up and lit himself a fag Boom , He survived
