A plan of communication between the new and the old town of Edinburgh, in the line of the earthen mound, and of building upon that sight, with observations and ground-plans
A planning treatise by Alexander Trotter of Dreghorn, published in Edinburgh in 1829 by Oliver & Boyd, addressing how the new and old towns of Edinburgh should connect across the earthen mound. Its plates are engraved views of the city and architectural ground-plans for the proposed buildings. A designer might draw on the crisp line hatching of the street elevations and the tidy schematic site plan showing blocks, streets and a long colonnaded facade.
