Lothian Road is a key thoroughfare in the centre of Edinburgh and it has seen a rich variety of activities over the years – from protest marches to celebrations and performances –as well as all that has gone on in key buildings along the street, including the Filmhouse and the Usher Hall.
And the area round about has also seen significant developments, as some of the photographs here show.
Scroll through this photo gallery and see what has changed and what you can remember.
13. Usher Hall
Edinburgh's Usher Hall has hosted countless concerts and plenty political rallies since it opened in 1914. In January 1992, the Lothian Road landmark was the venue for a keynote debate on devolution, independence and the status quo - Scotland: A Time to Choose - staged by The Scotsman, with Donald Dewar, Alex Salmond, Ian Lang and Malcolm Bruce.
