Kirkgate House
Kirkgate House is a 17-storey tower block which sits just off the bottom of Leith walk. I don't know much about this block as there's next-to-nothing about it on the internet. But anyway, me and Robbie went up it (the same day of the Niddrie visit). We got the lift up to the 12th floor and then walked up to the 17th (top).
Here are the pics:
