203 michaelA museum in the area would be a great way to display the exciting history that leith has, aswell as being another focal point for the growing sense of community leithers already have. a really good idea.

207 Paul ScottThe success of free entry in to The Tate Modern is the perfect example to provide more museums. They're no longer seen as elitist by the general public and they're busy as a result.
208 George S CruickshankAs a true Leither now returned after 40 years in the west of Scotland I wish to add my name to the growing army of museum advocates. Sooner rather than later. PS I was born at 4 Johnstone Street now long gone just under the shadow of the old Citadel-that historic site is now in a deplorable state and is nothing more than a local dump. I saw it yesterday-5 June and really,talk about the 'disgrace of Edinburgh !!! Keep up such excellent work and I hope most of us will still be around by the time Leith Museum opens !! GSC

222 Ewan HalleyLeith is rich in history and a museum would share that history with local people and visitors. It would be an attraction for the increasing number of tourists who make Leith part of their itinerary.
