Open Homes workspaceAbout Dundee
Dundee, on Scotland's Firth of Tay, is historically remembered for the 'three Js' — jute, jam and journalism. It was the centre of the British jute industry, home to the marmalade said to have been created here, and to the publishing house DC Thomson, creators of The Beano and Dandy. In recent years Dundee has reinvented itself as a centre for video games and design, becoming the UK's only UNESCO City of Design, with the V&A Dundee museum on its revitalised waterfront and two universities driving rental demand.
