Also doubled as a polling station. Also has been Diverse Attractions - the Fringe venue will need to find somewhere else now. We'll miss them as they were mainly smaller local groups who couldn't afford the bigger venues.</p> <p>Downside - hammering etc as they spend £5 million. Part of original roof may be put back. Is a lovely building with courtyard very much in Culross style.</p> <p><em>Mind you I'm sure they talked of doing this before and nothing happened.</em> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2480#post-26357 Wed, 09 Mar 2011 11:40:04 +0000 chdot 26357@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"<br /> ONE of the Capital's oldest buildings is to be overhauled to create a centre dedicated to a great Scottish thinker.</p> <p>The Sir Patrick Geddes Centre will be created in a £5 million restoration of Riddle's Court – hidden behind an archway on the Lawnmarket section of the Royal Mile and the site of Sir Patrick's summer schools.  </p> <p>The building, which dates to the 1590s, has been under the shadow of a possible sell-off by the city council and it's condition has deteriorated.
