Ramsay Garden, Residential complex near Edinburgh Castle, Scotland
The block of sixteen private apartments features red ashlar and white harled exteriors positioned along the Castlehill district of Edinburgh.
Patrick Geddes transformed the original 1733 Ramsay Lodge into the current residential buildings between 1890 and 1893 through an urban renewal initiative.
Architect Stewart Henbest Capper integrated traditional Scottish elements including balconies, towers, and eaves into the residential structure's final design.
The apartments provide direct access to the Castle Esplanade and offer views across Princes Street Gardens from their elevated position in Edinburgh's Old Town.
The structure includes an octagonal house section that served as student accommodation and contained murals depicting Celtic myths painted by John Duncan.
