The Ailsa Craig then-and-now -- would that be a different side, or have the cliffs really disappeared like that?

I'm going to say a different side. I really set this up pretty quickly, so it may be well worth it to go search for better photos of that island, taken from the correct angle!

It won't be possible to replicate the Marischal College shot.
New frontage was added in the early 1900s at the same level as the building shown on the left.
However, the building is now in the hands of Aberdeen City Council and large amounts of it have been demolished for its conversion to the new council HQ.
Here's the inner courtyard, taken on 18/04/2009
Click through for the large version.
And here's the outer building, shown on the left of the LoC picture.
Also taken on 18/04/2009.

Here's another shot of Marischal from around the same time.
