This was the bonnie mess in the 80's that was South Tay Street, although I seem to remember it was just this certain part in particular that had the slum look. This is the area nearest the Westport/Marketgait car park, with the old Palais doorway on the right. The Palais, obviously having gone through it's Samanthas and Bloomers phase by this time. It was also the sight we saw every time we went in and out of Slickers across the road.The whole of this block has survived and is now looking spick & span after its overhaul a few years later.
