Scope and Content East end of St Stephen Street, Stockbridge, Edinburgh St Stephen Street, a narrow street on the south side of the Water of Leith, curves round at its east end to meet the northern New Town. It was built in the 1820s with a parade of small shops along its entire length that came to new life during the 1970s. Here the east end of St Stephen Street joins the northern New Town just round the corner. This tenement block, by Thomas Brown c.1829, has a rusticated ground floor and six-paned window sashes, very much in the style of New Town architecture. Thomas Brown, as City Superintendent of Works in the 1820s, designed many of the buildings and streets in the northern New Town, including the north side of Cumberland Street, Royal Crescent, and Neo-Classical St Mary's Church in Bellevue Crescent.
