Union Street, Aberdeen
Union Street (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Street,_Aberdeen ) is famously straight, but is clearly not level, as the telephoto lens emphasises. The usual congestion of buses is apparent.

Union Street: the new look
After dithering for years over the issue, Aberdeen City Council has responded to the Covid-19 crisis of 2020 by pedestrianising Union Street to allow social distancing to be maintained more easily. Here we are looking eastwards towards the junction with Market Street; farther back is the huge tower of the town house and in the distance is the Citadel (the Salvation Army headquarters modelled on Balmoral).

Regardless, Aberdonians always refer to it as "Markies." To the left is the low-profile entrance to the Bon Accord shopping arcade.
