I am surprised they didnt route the tram to go through all thewe gorgeous places. Tourists only get to see a bit of Sighthill and the affluent Broomhouse area when they arrive.

The auld launderette doon auld niddrie brings back memories that , I used to live doon the fort in leith years ago then moved up ti granton ,Some mad times up pilton /granton .... YPD

Born in Muirhouse in 1998 moved to Fife 5 years later thank fuck. No much better across the forth like

My family moved into Craigentinny in 1950 it was thought to be one of the better council estates in those days We moved out in 1962 and moved to Lochend Happy Days.😂

I lived in BROOMHOUSE Broomhouse crescent, 30 odd years ago, right at the top in a bungalow just before the underpass that took you to the shops at Sighthill, i drove down Broomhouse Crescent last time i was in Edinburgh, not been there in over 20 years, and the playing field for the old primary school is a housing Estate 😮 How things change 😢

Fantastic video and perfect soundtrack for it. Wow it was put in 13 years ago scary how time flies

Used to be a postie and delivered to most of those places. Love Edinburgh.

Spotted my old house in the vid, reminded me of what a shit hole it really was. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Once you get past the nostalgia, you soon realise there’s another world out there. Those places were crime ridden, rat infested shit holes! Built to keep us down.

Mental Drylaw gang in the 1970s. Are they still going?

Funny, I grew up in Embra, in several of these neighbourhoods. I don't miss it, but I like to see this coz it reminds me how I've progressed in life. I could still be stuck in a crappy wee flat in Moredun. No offence to anyone who is....

Looks like dundee in the 90s actually identical!!! Scottish council estates are crazy as f,ck but great to grow up in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👊💯

Muirhouse, Muirhouse, Muirhouse, LEITH

The class divide in Edinburgh is by far the worse I have ever seen. It is disgusting that in 2023, your actual postcode determines your overall quality of life and life expectancy.

What a load of CRAP!

Where's the building at 3.01?

Yep just like all other towns and cities.

Born and raised in Bingham, great times and good memories with old friends ❤️

where are the slums? the niddrie images showed house's ready for demolition you can't call some place a slum if nobody lives there. the high rise homes looked ok

You're about as safe in Niddrie as you are in the Gaza Strip.

3:27 weird seeing my flat when the bridge was still there pre Union canal

never seen any of the calders !

True

Looks like niddrie at 1.30 mins born & bred in the YNT

This was Edinburgh in the good old days, miss it so much . Becky L you are spot on , I couldn’t have put it better masell , you hit the nail on the heed hen . 👍🏻

looks apocalyptic to me yet comments are overwhelmingly positive. must be a tough bunch you scots

Great wee vid. Brings back many memories, especially the last few shots of the high flats in Wester hailed & sighthill. Growing up in Dumbryden, one of the seven estates that make up Westerhailes was great. Tough areas, a lot of poverty but as a kid it was brilliant. There were so many kids, you were never short of someone to play footie with in the carpark.

Ah, I miss Hailesland. No fkn idea why.

I love it here just no respect for us older team

Straight oooota niddrie

Yes England russia. Love it.

my friend is calledf jamie if that hel[ps

Bike life boy

Boy

This brings back so many fond memories of Edinburgh granton pilton muirhouse westerhails sighthill broomhouse leith lochend craigintiny Craigmillar niddrie Bingham gracemount gilmerton the inch southhouse Burdiehouse you name it everyone loved these places when it was the slums no one wanted to enter these estates but the good thing about it all we all enjoyed it we all played in the schemes no one ever liked but it was our slums because that’s all we had away back then so you made the most of what we had everyone was in the same boat back in those days we never seemed to complain as everyone was living in the same conditions so that made us all equal from mr Colin Corcoran high street royal mile Edinburgh 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻

Miss Edinburgh so much, Pilton and then sighthill...my younger years, so so many amazig happy memories. ✌️🤗

Sunshine on leith dark clouds over niddrie

Excellent

They’re slowly demolishing all these old buildings. Anyone who was living in Edinburgh before 2013 knows it was a different world

In Glasgow you grow up thinking Edinburgh is full of tories, english people and tourists, weird seeing this side to the capital

Love it when you get comments from weegies trying to slag edinburgh. Bunch o Fuds

I watch this and although it may not be attractive to other viewers, it makes me happy because it reminds me of a time growing up where Edinburgh was simply Edinburgh...it was home. Now, most of these buildings are gone, and so are the people that lived in them. Pushed further out the city whilst the land their former homes stood on continues to be bought by filthy rich property development companies - in cahoots with the local council etc - who build "luxury apartments" that more than likely lie empty half the year when they're not let out through air b&b for 1k a week, or development after development of "student accommodation" with a Sainsbury's local and a Costa coffee occupying the ground floor units. Horrific

Anyone who doesn’t miss this side of Edinburgh is heartless and anyone who wants it back is brainless

Most people think of Edinburgh as the Castle and Princess Street. Sadly, our capital city has deep pockets of deprivation and poverty. The media refuses to highlight it and instead focus on Glasgow’s issues. It’s sad. We need to look after all our poor citizens in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My childhood right there, each and every scheme from lochend to wester hailes were my stomping grounds and took many a chase through the mazes in muirhouse and pilton from drylaws finest..

Horrible buildings, I’m glad they were demolished or remodelled.

What you mean By "Other side" Are you trying to call people that live in these places Junkies people who might not have it as good as you You cockhead

Codona sid

Jesus! All these Edinburgh locals making out they came from a bear pit in hell. It’s Edinburgh! It’s full of tourists and English people! Not exactly the Gaza Strip.

Its mental how much has been demolished or redeveloped in the past ten years
