Aberdeen has very limited pedestrianized area compared to most cities, although there is drawn-out discussion about making part of Union Street more pedestrian friendly. Note all the junk: information boards, traffic lights, bureaucratic road signs, planters, litter bins, phone kiosks, CCTV masts... that clutter public space. The huge Corinthian columns of the Royal Bank of Scotland can be seen in the background.
