Public land in public ownership with access to all. Private property developers - and their puppets in public office - will always covet public open space, especially when it is in the city centre. Citizens be vigilant.

Much can be done to improve access, security, etc without destroying the site. For example lifts could be installed on Union Bridge allowing easy access to the gardens with a walkway through to the railway station. Floodlighting and cctv would improve security and possibly the arches could host say a small coffee shop etc.

Extending the retail space into Union Terrace Gardens is not a welcome development. Nor is building offices or car parking spaces underneath a raised garden.

It's laughable, 'Oil Capital of Europe,' and no city centre public toilets. What must be the most basic human function is denied to us.
