Looking down at the main entrance. The building is stepped into the hillside, with the entrance on the fourth floor. To further blend it into its surroundings in accordance with planning regulations, rooftop gardens were planted (and are still maintained) on the lower floors. The building was completed in June 1983 as the head office of General Accident. The architects were James Parr and Partners of Dundee.
