tgranges's These plans will require the demolition of listed buildings and existing tenemant flats on the Royal Mile (to achieve this the Council are willing to promote Compulsory Purchase Orders on existing residents). East market Street will be renamed 'Parliament Way' and a large area of the Canongate district will be renamed 'Caltongate'.
