2-14 Airlie Place is a fine classical run of 4 residential blocks, now part of Dundee University administrative services. No 2 is particularly noteworthy for its prominent bowed corner and piended Doric porch and a good early example of the work of renowned Edinburgh architect John Dick Peddie who excelled at interpreting Italian palazzo architecture into a variety of building types. Contemporary with Airlie Place is his Royal Bank of Scotland, 67-69 High Street, Irvine and 5 Queen Street in Edinburgh (see separate listings). 1-15 Airlie Place opposite (see separate listing) was also designed by Peddie circa 1853 in a complimentary style.
