Wave FM was an Independent Local Radio station broadcasting to the cities of Dundee and Perth in Scotland. The station broadcast a mixed music format 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and was founded as part of The Petros Radio Group which launched Discovery AM in 1994 and Radio Waves in 1995, followed by the award of a full scale ILR licence with the help of a consortium which also founded Kingdom FM in Fife with the assistance of IRG (The Independent Radio Group) When the station originally launched it was called Discovery 102, since Dundee is known as the City of Discovery after the RRS Discovery, which is docked there. The brand name was changed to Wave 102 after The Discovery Channel stated that people would mistakenly associate the station with its network. On 15 May 2008, New Wave Media became the new owners of Wave 102, which was eventually joined by sister stations Original 106 in Aberdeen and Central FM in the Forth Valley. On 26 October 2016, Ofcom approved an application from Wave 102 and Heartland FM to allow Wave 102 to take over the 106.6FM transmitter covering Perth. On Monday 9 January 2017 the station started to brand itself as 'Dundee and Perth's Wave 102'. On 1 December 2016, three online-only stations were launched under the Wave 102 brand; Wave 102 Chart (playing non-stop hits), Wave 102 Country (24 hour current and classic country hits) and Wave 102 Gold (non-stop 60's, 70's and 80's hits). In December 2017 it was announced that Dundee based DC Thomson had acquired the licences to broadcast to Dundee and Perth from New Wave Media. On 19 March 2018 Wave 102 relaunched as Wave FM at 6am. Wave FM ceased broadcasting in July 2020 and was replaced by a relay of DC Thomson's national station Pure Radio, with opt-outs for local news and traffic bulletins. On 12 September 2023, Pure Radio ceased broadcasting with its FM frequencies in Dundee and Perth handed over to Aberdeen-based sister station Original 106.

The Overgate Centre is a shopping centre in Dundee, Scotland. Built in the 1960s to replace buildings erected in the 18th and 19th centuries, most of the original structure (e.g. the Angus Hotel) was demolished and redeveloped from 1998 to 2000. The centre reopened as a fully enclosed shopping mall in 2000 and follows the same basic layout as the 1960s structure. Two levels of retail units are enclosed by a long curved glass elevation looking out to the historic City Churches where a pedestrian precinct remains. It houses over 60 shops, cafes and restaurants as well as three car parks, two being multi-storey. The flagship stores are Debenhams, which is the only store that spans three floors, situated at the west end, and Primark at the opposite end. City House, a ten-storey office building, is located within the Overgate Centre itself and remains from the original 1960s centre. It overlooks the pedestrianised City Square and historic Caird Hall. City House is home to the Dundee offices of Curtis Banks, which employs around 40 members of staff.

The D'Arcy Thompson Zoology Museum is a museum of zoology at the University of Dundee in Scotland.The museum is named after the Scottish biologist and mathematician D'Arcy Thompson (1860–1948), who founded it in the 1880s. Thompson began acquiring specimens for a museum immediately on taking up the post of Professor of Biology at what was then University College, Dundee in 1885. An extension to his department in 1893 allowed the creation of a purpose-built museum, which grew to become one of the largest museums of its kind in Britain at the time.The original museum building was demolished along with its neighbours in 1956–57 to make way for the Tower Building, and much of Thompson's original collection was dispersed. The remaining material was kept in storage for many years before new museum displays were created in the Biological Sciences Institute in the 1980s. This building was itself later demolished, and in 2007 a new museum was created in the Carnelley Building, formally named the D’Arcy Thompson Zoology Museum after its founder.The museum has a collection of birds, fish, insects, mammals, and reptiles from around the world, together with many of D'Arcy Thompson's original models and teaching aids, including Glass Sea Creatures by Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka and model and fluid preparations by Vaclav Fric. Many of the specimens and models relate to Thompson's interest in mathematical biology, which led to his celebrated book On Growth and Form. The museum has 27 specimens from the voyage of HMS Challenger of 1872–1876 and material from several other notable expeditions including the Dundee Antarctic Expedition of 1892–3, the Ingolf Expedition of 1895–6, the Nimrod Expedition of 1907-9 and the Discovery Investigations of the 1930s. There are also specimens of various extinct species including Huia and Thylacine.The museum also has an art collection inspired by the work of D'Arcy Thompson including his 1917 book On Growth and Form, part of which was funded by the UK Art Fund. It includes works by Henry Moore, Victor Pasmore, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, William Turnbull and Salvador Dalí, an original catalogue from Richard Hamilton’s. Growth and Form exhibition (1951) and digital art of cellular forms by Andy Lomas.

The Steeple Church occupies the western part of the historic "City Churches" building in Dundee, Scotland. It is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. The "City Churches" are located in the city centre, adjacent to the Overgate shopping centre. The building is unusual as having two congregations within the same structure – the other congregation (at the eastern end) is Dundee Parish Church (St Mary's). The middle building ceased functioning as a place of worship in the early 1990s. St Mary's Tower, the clock tower at the western end of the City Churches, is the oldest part of the church, and is currently operated by Dundee City Council's heritage department and is commonly referred to as the Old Steeple by locals. During the war between Scotland and England known as the Rough Wooing, Dundee and Broughty Castle were occupied by English forces. In January 1548, an English commander, Thomas Wyndham placed a garrison of 20 "tall men" in the steeple, with the help of Andrew Dudley and the Scottish Lord Gray. Their armaments included cannon described as "a saker and a falcon and four double bases" and small guns called "hackbuts of crook".

Until the industrial revolution, the current City Centre represented the full extent of the City of Dundee, Scotland. Now roughly encircled by the market gait dual carriageway, the city centre is now the main shopping and commercial district. Unlike the city centre of Glasgow, many of the city centre's streets (especially in the southern and eastern quarters) are not built on a grid plan and in that way have more in common with the street plan of the Old Town of Edinburgh (although most buildings in Dundee's city centre date from the 19th century or later).

Dundee House is the present headquarters of Dundee City Council, which opened in August 2011 to replace Tayside House. It was designed by Reiach and Hall and has won two prestigious architecture awards, including a Royal Institute of British Architects award for architectural excellence.

The Diocese of Brechin is in the east of Scotland, and is the smallest of the seven dioceses of the Scottish Episcopal Church. It covers the historic counties of Angus and Kincardineshire. It stretches from Muchalls in the north east down to Dundee in the south, and across to Glencarse in the south west. The cathedral and administrative centre is St Paul’s Cathedral in Dundee. The diocese continues to be named after its medieval centre of Brechin. The diocese is thought to have been founded in 1153 by Bishop Samson. The diocese had a continuous line of bishops leading through the Reformation, when Donald Campbell (1557) and John Sinclair (1565) were elected Bishops of Brechin, but not consecrated; the line was continued later through Andrew Lamb. In 1566, Alexander Campbell was appointed as titular bishop. The line continued in proper form among Episcopalians with Andrew Lamb in 1610. From 1695 until 1709, the diocese was united with the Diocese of Edinburgh, with the latter's bishop, Alexander Rose, being also Bishop of Brechin. The line of independent bishops of Brechin restarted with John Falconar in 1709, and has continued to the present day. Following the resignation and death of the Right Reverend Dr John Mantle, in 2010, Dr Nigel Peyton was appointed Bishop of Brechin in May 2011. Dr Peyton was chosen ahead of four other candidates including Dr Alison Peden.The Diocese of Brechin is twinned with the Episcopal Diocese of Iowa (Iowa, United States) and with the Anglican Diocese of Swaziland (Swaziland). The manuscript records of the Diocese of Brechin are held by University of Dundee Archive Services. The archive collections include the administrative records of the diocese, records of individual churches, and the correspondence of Alexander Penrose Forbes and George Frederick Boyle.
