The New Scotland
Edinburgh Council seems to be fond of selling off school playing fields, and this development has been built on such a site. It is not yet finished. It is surprising that Nova Scotia, given its links with Scotland is not better commemorated in the capital.

An unfortunate juxtaposition
The College of Animal Welfare is not far from where the Chargrill Company has decided to park its van. Depending on your POV, this is either unintentional irony, or in very bad taste.

South Gyle Mains
South Gyle is another of these Edinburgh housing estates where all the streets have the same basic name, just with a different suffix. South Gyle Mains presumably recalls a farm which once stood here, and the central part of the estate is this circular green space. Looking at the map, the layout of the estate is like a spider, with a maze of culs-de-sac and blind alleys. Many of the houses do seem to feature elements of traditional vernacular architecture, like outside stairs to the upper floors, and this block is vaguely reminiscent of the Old Town tenements.
