A great view of Western Mid Levels c1870. The photographer is standing at the junction of Robinson Road (Today Park Road) & Bonham Road looking west. Centre Street is middle right. Babington Path (not yet named when the photo was taken) runs up the hill in the centre of the picture, running past the house called Greenmount. To the right of Greenmount is Craigellachie with Ball's court furthest to the right on the other side of Bonham Road. 

This photographer is likely William Floyd or John Thomson. 

Almost the same view today (The original photographer was standing in the middle of where the Wilton building now stands) :
