Good how the reconstruction oh Albert's Sq is back and finished, looks ten times better.

@3.00 Looks exactly the same to me except a bit more spacious some how.

[vonny100]

This was awesome to see, thanks for posting it

Lots of those old buildings are still there today. Do u have any pictures of the Wellgate??? My gran lived there, I would love a picture of it.

[speedy692]

Do you mean around the Wellgate Centre,such as the Cowgate round to the bottom of the Hilltown, I'm sure I have, send me an E-Mail.

[vonny100]

at the bootom of the wellgate there was an old pend just past the left corner, next to it was an old sweetie shop. my gran lived in that pend up the old stairs. If you have a shot of the wllgate I might see my grans livingroom window.

[peterd60]

sounds like you gran lived in peter's street, it's still there today. I remember there used to be a pet shop just down the pend on the right hand side.

[davesni]

[BillDFC]

Didn't mean to sound bad,it was meant in a light hearted way,sorry.

[speedy692]

it's ok, I thought it was obvious I didn't take them with Dundee Library splattered on the top of every photo.

[BillDFC]

Calm down!

[BillDFC]

Cheating! these photo's were taken by the man who worked in the jute mill in the late 19th.C.

[speedy692]

Before you come on here and call me a cheat, why didn't you e-mail me first, if I uploaded the full video or if you asked me you would've been told the guy gets credits for all of the photos at the end, anyway i'm only 35 so how on earth could i have taken the photos, I added the titles to let everyone know where the photos are from, I have taken over 5000 photos of around Dundee and done countless videos so don't call me a cheat.

[speedy692]

[yobnez]

Well Done...

[TinfishUK]

Amazing video. Good job.

(Check out my Dundee vid)

[aclockworktoastie]

Wish they'd kept it like that.

[speedy692]

Thanks, Yet most of the places in the old photo's look the same today, Dundee looks more spacious then, it's more built up now.

[Siora06]

Great video, love the music. It's so strange looking at those pictures, everythings the same.. yet completely different at the same time..
