2 North Square is in the heart of the historic fishing town of Footdee, or known locally as "Fittie" in Aberdee..  Fittie is one of the most unique communities in the UK.  The charming mid 19th century former fishing community was designed by John Smith, the architect responsible for Balmoral Castle.  The area houses picturesque fishing cottages and well maintained gardens set away from the hustle and bustle of Aberdeen City, but yet only a minutes walk from the hustle and bustle of the busy beach front and a 15 minute walk from the city centre.
