Bye-bye brewery



The McEwan's Brewery, right in the middle of this photo, is being slowly but surely demolished today by a wrecking company with two large cranes. So it's farewell to this long-lived Edinburgh landmark. Once it's gone, there will be temporarily an even better view of the River Forth and the Kingdom of Fife, but a new housing development is to be built and the view could be shut off. Unfortunately the quality of this photo is poor and I left my camera battery charger in Galway, so I can't take any shots of today's hot demolition action.
