Monolithic development in the Aviemore Highland Resort on Speyside. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviemore

Aviemore had been a quiet little village until the 1960s when it underwent a major period of growth following the development of the Cairngorm ski areas from 1961. This led to the opening of the Aviemore Centre in 1966. This provided a wide range of services for visitors and residents alike. Unfortunately, the new centre dwarfed the original village and much of its 1960s concrete-based architecture was out of keeping with the rest of the area. In around 1998 many of the original buildings were demolished as part of a promised £50 million overhaul of the resort. http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/aviemore/aviemore/index.html - Undiscovered Scotland http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviemore - Wikipedia http://www.auldaviemore.co.uk/oldcentre.htm - "auldAviemore.co.uk"

This photograph shows people skiing on the slopes outside the Strathspey Hotel (I think it was the Wednesday of half term week, overnight snow had made the road to Cairngorm very difficult for minibuses) http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/aviemore/aviemore/index.html - Undiscovered Scotland http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviemore - Wikipedia http://www.auldaviemore.co.uk/oldcentre.htm - "auldAviemore.co.uk"
