Only the trams are missing from this Murraygate scene, little changed over 50 years although now a pedestrian precinct.   The British Linen Bank's Dundee main office which became a branch of the  Bank of Scotland is up for let (January 2006) - PHOTOs Malcolm McCrow

Another scene which has changed little over the years - the Seagate seen from Commercial Street (left) with a Volvo B7TL East Lancs Viking for Dundee City Centre (Littlewoods) (right) - PHOTOs Malcolm McCrow
